Panching (GPS: 3.89688, 103.1417) is a small town in Pahang. It is located along the banks of Sungai Kuantan, between Kuantan and Sungai Lembing. Perhaps the only sight of tourist interest here is Gua Charas, a cave at a limestone outcrop just outside the town.
Within Panching itself is a Chinese temple and a number of schools. Masjid Hashimmiah is the local mosque here. The main road is Jalan Sungai Lembing (Route 231) which connects Kuantan with Sungai Lembing.
