Kuala Terengganu, the royal capital and administrative centre of Terengganu state on Malaysia's East Coast, sits at the mouth of the Terengganu River facing the South China Sea. The city holds a walkable centre with a strong café and restaurant scene, and its heritage quarter, Kampung Cina, the Pasar Besar Kedai Payang market, and the Terengganu State Museum give it a dense cultural core. Awarded the title Waterfront Heritage City in 2008, it also serves as the main gateway to wider Terengganu's tourist destinations.
