步行记:湖內人民公园 Relau Metropolitan Park

Taman Awam Metropolitan Relau

在槟城,每当在谈话中提到“公园”二字时,很多人都会联想到位于槟城植物园附近的青年公园。其实,在湖内就有一个类似青年公园的人民公园了。我不晓得是否只有附近居民知晓湖内人民公园的存在,因为我不曾听人们提起过这个人民公园,而我是在当地朋友的带领下才来到湖内人民公园的。

湖内离我家(立信花园)大约四公里左右。昨天,心血来潮一个人走路来到了湖内人民公园。虽然四公里不是一段很长的距离,但由于有几段路都是上坡路,所以我也耗上了一小时左右才抵达(其实还蛮吃力一下的)。

In Pennag, when someone mention about a park, one will usually think of the youth park that is located near the botanical garden. In Relau, there is a similar park and it is called Relau Metropolitan Park. I am not sure whether this park is commonly known or not as I have never heard of anyone mentioning about it before. I get to know this park thanks to a local friend who had brought me there long ago.

Relau ia at about 4km from my house (Lip Sin Garden). Yesterday, having nothing to do at home, I walked alone to this metropolitan park. Though it was quite a short distance, but I have used more than an hour to reach there as some of the paths to Relau are slopes. I walked slower on the slopes and it was really energy consuming.


我通过Lebuh Bukit Jambul前往湖内。一路上,我看到的都是一栋又一栋的豪宅,心想住在这一带的应该都是某某公司的大老板吧?这些豪宅有些还在建着,而有些则荒废了。我还看见了几间壮丽堂皇的幼儿园,在那里当幼儿教师的薪水不晓得会有多高呢?

I went to Relau by passing through Lebuh Bukit Jambul. On the way, I saw luxury houses one after another. Some of the houses are still in the building process while some were abandoned. I saw some kindergartens too. I wonder how much is the pay for being a teacher in these high class kindergartens?


再往前走不久旁边两旁都变成了森林,这也就意味着我快要到湖内了。

Both sides of the road were surrounded by forest as I walked further, and this means that I was pretty near to Relau already. 


经过森林道路时,发现到左边有一片湖,这是我平时坐车经过时都没有注意到的。森林道路走到末路时必须转左,然后就会来到Tingkat Bukit Jambul。上图这条小路是可以通往那片湖的,森林道路转左不久就能看见这条小路了。

While passing through the forest, I saw a lake on it's left side. I have passing through here many times with car but I have never noticed this lake before. Walking along the road, I eventually came to a dead end and I have to turn left to reach Tingkat Bukit Jambul. The small road in the photo is the path towards the lake, it is located just not far after I turned left from the dead end.


湖的周边都是一栋栋高楼住宅。除了那条小路以外,住宅区也是有路可以前往这个湖的。

There are condominiums surrounding the lake. There are actually paths for the residents to go to the lake from their residence places.


我在这个湖里看见了鲶鱼。

I saw catfish in this lake.


这一带的住宅区叫做Bukit Jambul Indah。

The residence area here is called Bukit Jambul Indah.


在湖的周边设了洋灰跑道,我可以考虑来这里练习跑步为我的二桥马拉松作准备了。。哈哈。。

There is a cement walking path around the lake. Well, I can consider coming here for my P2B marathon training..hehe..


在湖那里拍了一些照片后,继续前往湖内人民公园。从小路走出来看到的就是这条Tingkat Bukit Jambul。一直往下走将会来到交通灯,转左是去新港和峇六拜,转右是去亚依淡和浮罗山背。

I took some photos at the lake and then continued my journey to the metropolitan park. Coming out from the lake and I came to this road, Tingkat Bukit Jambul. Walking down towards the end of this road and I came to a traffic light. To the left is the roads lead to Bayan Lepas and Sungai Ara. To the right, the roads lead to Balik Pulau and Air Hitam.


交通灯过后,我转左。走了几步路后就会看见一个阶梯了。阶梯?对,没错!就是阶梯。这个阶梯就在交通灯转左后抵达这个脚车标志牌之前一点。

I turned left after the traffic light and came to a stair. A stair? Yes, a stair! The stair is located just before reaching this bicycle signboard.


就是这个阶梯啦!这个阶梯是上次我和朋友来的时候发现的,通过这里就可以直接抵达人民公园了,不必绕大路。

Tada! This is the stair! Me and my friends discovered this stair during our last visit. We can reach the metropolitan park directly by passing through here. It really saved me a lot of time as I don't have to walked along the main road to get to the park.


刚走下阶梯不久就看见这位嗱督公了。

I saw this Datuk Gong (deity) after taking a few steps down the stair.


这里的景色蛮美的,下面有两个亭子可以休息,还有一条小溪可以戏水。

The view here is quite nice. At the bottom there are two pavilions for resting and a river for playing.


在半山有个小庙,庙里主要供奉的是玉皇大帝,妈祖婆和海龙王。庙的旁边有个小祠是供奉福德正神(大伯公)的。

There is a Chinese temple half way down the stair.


其实啊,在经过这里时,我是真的很害怕的。当时就只有我一个人,而且在庙里贴着的报章说这里以前死过人,所以我每走一两步就合起双手拜拜,减轻心理压力。

Actually, I was really scared when I was passing through here. I was alone and I saw the articles sticking on the wall of the Chinese temple saying that there were people dying here. So I prayed all the way to reduce my stress.


通过那片山林后就会来到这里。这间废弃的建筑物以前是郑景贵的豪宅,有一阵子还传着闹鬼的新闻。

Passing through the small hill and I came to this place. This building used to be the mansion of Kapitan Chung Keng Kwee and rumors are saying that it is haunted.


经过郑景贵豪宅后,终于来到湖内人民公园了!

After passing through the haunted mansion, finally I reached Relau Metropolitan Park!


这个黄色建筑的中间就是公园的入口啦(其实很多地方都可以进入啦,只是这个看起来比较正式而已。。嘻嘻~)。在最左边的是厕所,接下来就是办公室和行政部门了。

At the middle of this yellow building is the entrance to the park (actually there are many entrances, just that this one looks more formal). The most left part is the toilet, follow by the office and the administration corner.


在最右边的是一简餐馆。昨天我去的时候正在装修着,没有营业。

And the most right part is a cafeteria. When I went there yesterday, the cafeteria was under renovation and they were closed for business.


在餐馆附近有几张上面刻有西洋棋的桌子,喜欢下棋的朋友可以来这里聚一聚哦。

Nearby the cafeteria there are some marble tables with the chess board being carved on them. It is definitely a nice place for the chess love to gather.


通过大门后便来到了一片大空地,上次我和我的朋友来的时候看见有一群人在这里耍太极。

Passing through the entrance and I came to a big empty field. During my last visit with my friend, we saw some aunties and uncles were having their Tachi lesson here.


这个走道很美一下,可以考虑来这里拍写真。。哈哈。。

This pathway is looking nice. Well, it is not a bad idea to do some portrait shooting at here..hehe..


运动设施

Sport facilities.


这里也有游泳池,虽然是无法和青年公园的相比,不过总比好过没有。

There is a swimming pool inside the park. Though it is incomparable with the one in the youth park, but still it is better than no at all.


Zig-zag形的桥。

The zig-zag bridge.


我个人并不是很喜欢这里的跑道,因为有些地方会有阶梯的(我喜欢平平的)。

I personally dislike the jogging track in this park as there are places where the track is made of stairs (I like a smooth track).


基本上,只要随着跑道走就能走完整个公园了。

Basically, you can walk through every part of this park if you follow the jogging track all the way.


离“正式”入口处较远的地方也有运动设施。

There are sport facilities at the other part of the park too.


其实整个公园都几乎可以看见这些运动设施。

Actually you can find these sport facilities at most of the places in the park.


这里是公园比较上面一带,入口处就在zig-zag桥的对面。这里给我的感觉会比较像是植物园多一点,因为都种植了很多不同的植物,包括了橙,榴莲,番石榴,杨桃和菠萝蜜。好吧,接下来我就称呼这里为植物园吧~

This is the upper part of the park, the entrance is at the opposite of the zig-zag bridge. Well, the upper part feels more like a botanical garden for me as it was planted with various type of trees including lime, durian, guava, start fruit and jackfruit.


这些果树都是以一个圈一个种类方式种植的。虽然圈里都是同一种类的果树,但是品种却不同。

These trees were planted in the way that one circle is for one type of fruit. Though the type of fruits are the same, yet they are differed in species.


在这里的亭子都挂着与植物相关资料的文章。

The pavilions at here are hang with articles regarding the plants.


在植物园里有个高塔。我当时没有爬上去,因为有点累了。

There is a tower at the upper part. I was tired already so I didn't climb the tower.


这是通往植物园最里面的道路,一个人走时还真的是有点恐怖呢!

This is the pathway leading to the inner most part of the upper part. I was quite scared when I was walking on this path as I was alone.


这就是最里面的植物园啦。这里种植的不是果树了,而是草药。其实还能往前走的,不过当时我真的是有点害怕,所以我返回了。

This is the inner most part of the park. It is not planted with fruit trees but is planted with herbs. Actually there is still path available to walk further but I was really scared at that moment so I decided to turn back.

如果嫌青年公园太远的话,可以考虑来湖内人民公园。在这里拍写真也是很不错的,真的很大自然。理大生们,趁还没毕业前来一趟吧!
湖内人民公园的开放时间是每天早上七点至晚上七点。

If youth park is too far for you, you can consider come to this metropolitan park. This park was a nice venue to have portrait shooting, it is really natural! For USM students, lets explore this place at least once before you graduated.
The opening hours of Relau Metropolitan Park is daily 7am to 7pm.

注:湖内人民公园是禁止溜狗狗的哦!

Note : Relau Metropolitan Park is prohibited from bringing along your dogs.
