After 4.5 years of living in Malaysia, the wet markets didn't phase me too much. But for my daughter and my two brothers from the States, the smell of fresh meat, poultry, seafood with vegetables and fruits displayed in all manners proved quite overpowering.
 |
| The bustling wet market |
 |
| Fresh grilled corn |
 |
| Dried fish, cuttlefish, shrimp (prawns) in all shapes and sizes |
 |
| These women work at least 12 hours day to sell their fruit |
 |
The famous durian- king of all fruits
The incredibly fresh vegetables can be bought whole or already cut up for you to use. |
 |
| The absolutely beautiful dragon fruit- so yummy. |
Although the smell of the wet markets didn't daunt me too much, the wide selection of items offerred for sale did. I saw many trays of fresh eels, frogs and turtles. I saw congealed blood as well as other animal organs...And I have to say that they are appeared incredibly fresh.

| If you look closely, you will see fresh frogs, turtles, eels along with other fish |
 |
| Congealed blood- thought to have many health benefits |
