Christmas Light-up at The Zenith Hotel, Kuantan

We attended a lovely event at The Zenith Hotel in Kuantan the other night, titled "Christmas Light-up".

The Zenith Hotel was looking fabulous as always. It was great to meet up with old members of staff there whom we met when the hotel first opened back in December 2010.

I love how spacious every area of The Zenith Hotel is. The lobby, check-in area, seating areas, the Lounge and Dining Room, even the elevators areas and the toilets are all spacious and attractive.

A small choir sang Christmas songs and hymns on the blue illuminated stairs in the lobby as people gathered to listen and reflect on the Christmas season. A local group of mentally challenged people were invited to the event as special guests in what was a nice touch to the night.

Food and drinks buffet style were served afterwards in the Lounge and Dining Room. 

I hope you'll enjoy the photos I took of the Christmas Light-up night!

I even got a photo with Santa and his helper!

Love this image of Santa at the bar. He works too hard!

A Night of Christmas Choral Music 2012 at SAS Convention Centre, Kuantan

We inadvertently stumbled upon "A Night of Christmas Choral Music 2012" last Saturday night while buying cake at The Zenith Hotel.

We decided to attend, and it was free for all, at the adjoining Sultan Ahmad Shah International Convention Centre (SASICC).


Exhibition Halls 1 & 2 were opened up into one big hall, which held 3,000 people on the night.

Put on by the Wesley Methodist Church in Kuantan, together with other participating churches, it was a wonderful event with inspiring music and words about Jesus Christ, the reason we celebrate Christmas.



This was a 2-hour performance of both choral singing and instrumental prowess which delighted the 3,000 spectators in attendance.

The Christmas season is well and truly underway in Kuantan!



















The concert ran from 8-10pm and was thoroughly enjoyed by all. We left a little early to avoid the inevitable jam around Putra Square!
