庙院钟声 Labu Hill

夕阳无限好

枯树野草伴夕阳

晨昏

阳光驱走了黑暗

发展中的芙蓉市

没有人懂这座山的正式名字。

山上有两座兴都庙，向来上山者多为印度同胞，居民索性称它为‘印度山’。 也有人称它为‘拉务山’， 因为山在拉务路旁。

印度山海拔只有300多米，从山脚到山顶，一般体力步行30分钟就可到顶。山上风景怡人，可俯望整个芙蓉市，天气晴朗还可遥望到波德申海上的船只。

我喜欢黄昏上山，通常都是一个人独往。我享受独自登山的乐趣，一个人可以什么都想，也可以什么都不想。聆听着自己的脚步声，欣赏着山上的树木，加上偶尔传来几声猴叫声，环境静中带动，令我感受到生活的满足和快乐！

山上两座庙，一大一小，历史悠久，香火旺盛。大庙在山腰，小的在山顶。小庙里还挂着一口钟，上山的人喜欢击它几下，钟声特别悦耳。

几年前， 看守小庙的印度老人病了，在没有接班人的情况下，小庙年久失修，香火也少了，连那口钟也不知在什么时候不见了。每次上到小庙，不禁若有所失！但心中总会响起那熟悉的钟声！

据说这土地是属于私人所有，如果地主将它发展成为高尚住宅区，到时我们将失去市内唯一的登山处，那熟悉的钟声，也将无处寻觅了！

I am not sure the official name of this hill in Seremban. As there are two Hindu temples at the top, people call it as Hindu Temple Hill. It is also known as Labu Hill as it is situated near Labu road.

This hill has become a favorite place for hash-runners and you will also find a growing numbers of health-conscious city folks who climb the hill either in the morning or in the evening. It takes about 45 minutes walk from the foot of the hill to the top.

Though not very high, only about 300 meters above sea level, the view is scenic and with Seremban town under your feet. You may even see Port Dickson from a far distance when weather is good.

I was told the land of the hill is a private property, I hope it will not turned into a housing estate in the future as it is the only hill in town.
