We found this fort by accident after making a wrong turn. It is off a small paved road with its own parking lot and one lonely sign giving a brief discription. The abandoned restaurant by the entrance and the fact not one peron was around made it rather spooky. The view over the Strait of Melacca is definitely worth the trip though!
