Unforgetable Holidays with Sweet Memories in Cameron Highlands, Malaysia

Cameron Highlands, which is the evergreen, Malaysia's largest & best known hill resort, located in the state of Pahang. It was discovered by William Cameron, a British surveyor, explored the area in 1885 during a mapping expedition, and so it was named Cameron Highlands.

We took the Five Stars coach at 10Pm night & arrived there next morning at 8Am. On the way, there are a lot of U-turns & the 2 way roads are very narrow & dangerous. On the road, we saw the damaged cars from the crash. I was scared & so I prayed  throughout the trip to reach there safely. Firstly, we visited tea plantation.

Then, we started to visit to BOH Tea Factory. Have a memorable experience viewing the full process of Tea!

After that, we moved into the mossy forest. There are a lot of awesome medicinal plants, beautiful wild orchids  & herbal plants. But it was very muddy & rainy at that time so I couldn't take photos, trying  not to slip into the forest. In my life, it was a risky & valuable experience to have a chance to study a world wonders of nature forest.

Next, drove up to the highest point of Cameron highlands- Mount Brinchang located at a majestic height of 6666 feet above sea level & enjoyed the most panoramic view of the highlands from the top of tower.

In addition, we went to strawberry farm. There are also souvenir shops of local vegetables, strawberry-made products & accessories. Moreover, self picking of strawberries is allowed to buyers but it costs RM 20 for half Kg & RM 40 for 1Kg.

 

I only bought 3 packets of strawberries for RM 10 & strawberry-flavoured tea. Besides, I tried a glass of strawberry milk shake juice.

Then, beautiful flower nursery, water-cress farm, Cactus Farm & lettuce farm were also visited.

After dinner,it was still raining. We browsed the night market & bought some snacks for supper.

      Next morning, we had buffet in Equatorial Hotel & visited to the market to buy local vegetables, corn & desserts. At 10 Am, the coach fetched us from the hotel to go back.

     On the way to home, I took some photos of sceneries of Cameron Highlands' city from the coach.
