  • 林明曾经是世界着名的锡矿出产地,即使时代的变迁,林明再不生产锡矿了,但是当年遗留下来的文物及遗迹,都是旅客参观的景点。
    林明镇山坡上的林明博物馆,展出多种採锡时代所使用的工具及矿坑模型,是现代人很好的历史及教育工具。虽然当年在林明操作的PCCL公司虽然关闭了,不过所遗留的英殖民时代建筑物,散发古色古香的感觉。
    Sungai Lembing is a small town in Kuantan District, Pahang, Malaysia. It is about 42 km (26 miles) northwest of Kuantan.[6] The town was founded in the 1900s as a tin mining community when the British company Pahang Consolidated Company Limited (PCCL) set up the tin mining industry there after mining activities had begun in 1886. Sungai Lembing had electricity, schools, a cinema, its own petrol station, and a hospital.
    In 1926, flooding damaged caused mining activities to be suspended for three months. The Great Depression and the Japanese occupation of Malaya greatly affected the town's tin mining industry. Since the independence of Malaya, Sungai Lembing has gone into decline as global demand and prices of tin dropped, resulting in the closure of the mines in 1987. Many residents moved away, causing facilities such as shops and petrol stations to close.
    After 2001, Sungai Lembing was revitalized as a heritage tourism attraction with the opening of Sungai Lembing Museum. Subsequent government investment has made this area one of the important tourist attractions in Pahang. In 2014, the town had a population of around 5,000. A large fire in 2019 raised concern for the preservation of historical buildings.
