Malaysia Peninsular State Parks,  Nakawan State Park 
玻璃市州级公园, 玻璃市州属, 马来西半岛

在马来岛西北部的角落,是大马最小的州属玻璃市这个州属面积只有仅仅795平方公里(307平方里),与泰国西南部边境紧紧相依

喜爱野外自然环境的人们,这里尚有一个小巧的玻璃市国家公园 : Nakawan State Park. Nakawan国家公园受到玻璃市州森林局管理,它的公开的范围里包括了许多森林山谷、形状各异的石灰岩山及许多洞穴它的其中一部分面积约300平方公里范围一直伸沿进入泰国境内,纵使如此,它依然是属于国家公园的辖区.

许多罕见的热带雨林植物直接重重从石灰岩山上生长,这里甚至可以看到他处罕见的植物在热带雨林里生长这里也是全马唯一可以寻找到Stump-tailed Macaque的地方,这种猿猴拥有红脸及红臀部

此外,尚有其他稀有的动物,包括了名为Serow的野羊、野猪、野豹其他至少30种哺乳动物.除此之外,这里尚有至少200种鸟类,6种犀鸟、及至少49种爬虫类及两栖动物.如果你的运气好,尚可以看到人猿(White-handed Gibbon)、黑叶猴(Dusky-Leaf monkey)及生活在洞穴里,日伏夜出的大群蝙蝠等等.

参观玻璃市州级公园的`游客中心是认识州园的第一站林业局人员游客播放幻灯片解说州园导航的短片。

州园的特色是这里的落叶林、石灰岩山脉和山洞,以及丰富的动植物。这里是马来半岛旱雨季较明显的地方,每年12月至隔年3月是这里的旱季,雨水少得连森林中的植物也深受影响,在旱季时落叶。

园中的Wang Burma山洞是值得探访的景点,Wang在这里语言,是山谷的意思。

Wang Burma山洞是个天然的洞穴,又分为洞一和洞二两部分。从住宿区到洞一入口需跋涉森林半小时。由于正是雨季,林底到处可见蚂蟥(山蛭)在落叶上直立起来,伺机攀上寄主饱食一顿。尽管我和导游途中曾停下细细检查双脚,仍被捐去了不少血。

Wang Burma山洞非常美丽。洞一首先看到的是许多形状特殊和富有美感的钟乳石、石柱等石灰岩结构。据导游说来,一些石柱已有4亿年的年龄。整个行程就像探险一般,其中一处必须将身体挤过窄缝才能深入另一洞室。到了洞二,又是另一番滋味,由于有天然的河水流经,因此必须涉水而行。

在洞中大概耗了两个小时,看到两种蝙蝠、鳖、鱼、虾、大蟾蜍和蜘蛛。我在拍摄较大型的蝙蝠时意外发现有些蝙蝠的臂上扣有银色的金属环,是前阵子一名外国研究者调查时给捕捉到蝙蝠所留下的标记。

每一座壮丽的石柱都是由水源一滴滴溶解石灰岩物质后再析出而逐渐形成的,因此一座大型的石灰岩结构常有千万年的历史,来访的游客,请别触碰以免影响它们的色泽和成长。

Wang Burma洞二的部分必须涉水穿越,但却能观赏到一些形状特殊的石灰岩结构。

Nakwan国家公园距离玻璃市州首府加央约30公里(19里),它亦距离马泰边境巴东勿刹仅有短短的15公里的路程,从这里可以乘搭巴士或德士前往著名的加基武吉洞,一个非常靠近国家公园的市镇此外,Nakawan国家公园亦有另一个位于泰国境内的入口处,它穿越Thaleban国家公园,由此路可前往马泰边境市镇Wang Kelian,不过唯一可使用的交通是乘坐德士.

Perlis State Park is located along the western border of Perlis, where Peninsular Malaysia meets Thailand. The Park is situated on the longest continuous range of limestone hills in the country, called the Nakawan Range which stretches some 36km long. The Nakawan Range has beautiful, heavily forested slopes, sheer cliff faces, streams and extensive cave systems. The Park consists of Mata Ayer Forest Reserve and Wang Mu Forest Reserve with a total area of about 5,000ha.

One unique aspect of the Perlis State Park is that it is the only semi-deciduous forest (which displays marked changes during the dry season, whereby the leaves fall) in the country. The Park's objectives are protection, conservation, research, education and recreation. Some of the major attractions in Perlis State Park includes the various caves such as Gua Kelam and Gua Wang Burma which is located within the 500 year-old Setul limestone formation

Perlis State Park is the first State Park established on 1997 and gazetted on 3 July 2008 to protect and preserve biological diversity. It sits in between Mata Ayer Reserve Forest and Wang Mu Reserve Forest with area of 4,379.81 hectares. Perlis State Park is on the west side of Perlis which is located on the longest limestone range in Malaysia (38 kilometres) known as 'Banjaran Nakawan'.

The natural forest Perlis State Park is the seasonal type forest of Meranti Putih-Gerutu or better known as partial forest deciduous (semidecidous). Most of the trees which grew on these limestone hills will drop their leaf during prolonged drought between December to May each year. In certain part of Perlis State Park, the vegettion forest is the dipterokapa lowland type.

Untill today, there are 616 species of flora (including one new species of Tectaria shahidaniana), 68 species of mammal (including 5 primate species, 4 cat species, 32 bat species), 211 species of birds (including 6 hornbill species), and 35 reptile species (including 27 snake) species were identified.   Kentoi Ape (Macaca arctoides) was the sole species of endemicmammal and can be found here. Bogak  species (Cycas clivicola) is a type of antiquity endemic plant and its rarity have become a symbol  for Perlis State Park.

The uniqueness of Perlis State Park is not only in the Flora and Fauna, but on the State Park itself. Most limestone hills located along Banjaran Nakawan is the oldest Setul Formation in Malaysia and the age are estimated of more than 500 million year. There are also other attractive places and can are visited by tourist in Perlis State Park such as Gua Wang Burma, Gua Kelam, Arked Niaga, Bukit Pelarit, Bukit Rongkit, Denai Warisan, Denai Putera Denmark, Tasek Meranti and Gunung Perlis. Historic materials and samples picked up from the park are also stationed and displayed in gallery.
