along the zoo-number 1


Maybe you wonder,"What is that?".It's actually a Kapok tree pod.There are a few trees inside the zoo.The fibre is used for mattress or pillow fillings.Here,they sell Kapok fibre pillows and they are quite expensive because they are hand made.

Yes, the kapok filled pillow costs $54.00 US Dollars. Maybe some stores are a little cheaper but that is the price given to me.

Thank you for visitng my blog.

I know Kapok (kapuk in Indonesian) but I've never seen the tree before. Nice pic Dijah!

abraham kincoln-here in Malaysia I think its expensive because it's handmade.Usually its sold by the streets but not here in Ampang.
