After living in the busy city of Kuala Lumpur with its noise and bustling
traffic, it is a pleasure to go up to Cameron Highlands, a cool mountain
resort, for relaxation.
Enroute you will enjoy the scenic
countryside as you drive up hilly roads amidst jungle trees, waterfalls and
small villages. Then, you feast your eyes each time you pass a flower
nursery or a vegetable farm. The cool, crisp air at Tanah Rata makes you
feel invigorated. At the same time, you are able to admire the
quaint-looking English-style cottages
along the way. Roses creeping up and clinging to the walls of the cottages
remind you of England and the scenery is enchanting if you happen to be a
nature-lover. Usually, a visitor gets quite hungry as he goes up the
highlands and he is able to enjoy the piping hot meals served in the
restaurants.
As the sun goes down, temperature drops and it becomes quite chilly. You
can then sit by the fireside with your favourite story book and laze around
in a sweater or a jacket as it is quite a contrast to the warm and sunny
weather on the plains in your hometown.
A visit to the famous Boh Tea plantation is interesting and worthwhile
for have you ever wondered how you get you cup of tea? It comes mainly from
the tea plantations on Cameron Highlands. Jungle walks are also a good way
of spending your time while you are there. Cameron is indeed an ideal
holiday resort. |
