4. 3.5 Cameron Lavender (435 reviews)
   - One of tourist attractions in Cameron Highlands
   Gardens
   
   
   I'm one of the tourist that didn't want to miss a chance to visit this Lavender Garden. For me its really worth it because we just have to pay RM 8 for entrance ticket. I also bought a lavender ice cream that costs RM 6 to take a photo with lavender flowers as background for to upload to instagram's story even though i dont really like it. But its my first time ate lavender ice cream, so I thought that its okay to spend RM 6 for beautiful photo, lol. After that, Iam walking up the slope and I was welcomed by a larger space with countless sunflowers, its really beautiful. Besides, I also self pluck the strawberry to bring back for my family.

   A month ago today, Saturday 15.10.22 First World Plaza Hotel in Genting Highlands.

So much has changed and improved on though lots more brands and outlets as well as eatery. Very good weekend crowd as usual See more..

    - bukit gambang water park - great place for kids
    Wednesday: 11:00 AM - 6:00 PM Spent More than 3 hours Water Parks
    
    
    Went to bukit gambang water park but did not stay at the resort. Park was fun although a bit small and not too many rides. However the rides are longer than most other water parks. Park is surrounded by trees which provides lots of shades on a hot sunny day. It's a good place for family to hang out although its a long drive from kuala lumpur. Another good point is the cashless concept - you need not carry any cash to buy food or rent floats. Just top up your card at entrance and refunds will be given if you still have balance when you leave the park. Would go there again with family. See more..

13. 3.5 East Coast Mall (163 reviews)
    - Average mall
    Spent 1-2 hours Shopping Malls
    
    
    There have a few entrance to the mall, unfortunately there was no security guard checking visitors' temperature if you are coming from the basement parking. However we have to give the basement parking a thumb-up because of its conveniences. The shops so-so only with typical fast-food chains but very few. We enjoyed going to the supermarket (Aeon); not too crowded. Other than that, nothing much to see and buy. See more..

    - Only if you like cactus
    Gardens
    
    
    We were here one late weekday afternoon, the shops outside were not opened (maybe aftermath of Covid lockdowns). Entrance fees was quite expensive (RM 8) and experience with the lady manning the counter was quite unpleasant. We took some photos of the variety of cactuses and there were flower beds too. However, we didn't purchase any cactuses while we were there. we found cheaper and nicer ones at one shop by the road side at Kea farm. See more..

    - City Zoo
    Spent 1-2 hours Zoos • Playgrounds
    
    
    If you want to pass 2 or 3 hours this is the best way to relax and walk around this unique zoo in the middle of Kuantan. Not many animals but is good enough to bring the kids to enjoy the sunshine and breathe of fresh air. Get a picnic basket and you be ready to have a nice relaxing time away from the city life.

    - Can visit since there is no entry fee
    Spent 1-2 hours Farms
    
    
    We visited this farm on Thursday (27/8/20) evening around 6 pm. We were lucky because there was no crowd. Many plants in the farm but they were all small plants. Entry to pick strawberries is rm35 for 2 pax and a box of strawberries for free. Nothing very exciting except the strawberry juice. It was marvelous with no sugar added at rm5 only. Pancake with strawberry filling is nice if eaten hot. See more..

Time Tunnel, a museum dedicated to colonial-era antiques and heritage, occupies a section of the building at Kok Lim Strawberry Farm. See more..
    
26. 3.5 Allan's Water (42 reviews)
    - Quiet and pleasant
    Bodies of Water • Parks
    
    
    There isn't actually that much to do at Allan's Water, and it isn't that big. However, as a civil engineering graduate and history nerd, I looked it up and its story of how an engineer's sustainable energy idea that was ahead of its time was ignored, has a special appeal to me. The place should be greatly appreciated by children, or at least my nieces were obsessed with the ducklings. If you happen to be there when it's raining, the forest mist gives a wonderful ethereal scene over the water. See more..
    
27. 3.5 Kea Farm Market (42 reviews)
    - Daytime market
    Flea & Street Markets • Farmers Markets
    
    
    This market offers travelers a chance to experience an authentic roadside farmers market in the Cameron Highlands. The market is open from morning till evening—get there early in the morning for fresh produce like strawberries, bi-colored sweet corn, and plenty of greens. Or swing by near closing when these perishable items go for a bargain. There are also vendors selling cooked food and snacks like steamed sweet potatoes. You can explore the market on a guided tour of the Cameron Highlights, which usually includes other fascinating spots nearby like The Sheep Sanctuary, Ee Feng Gu Bee Farm, and Boh Tea Center. – Tripadvisor See more..
    
28. 3.5 Gua Charas (40 reviews)
    - Safe activities for climbing
    Caverns & Caves
    
    
    Its a cave. Believe there are big renovation and digging. The cave is deep through inside once climb up to the top. And walk through the staircase down to the walk way. The are sounds of bat. Just the smell is rather strong. Going deeper, and deeper. A sleeping buddha statue lies on the altar. You may grab 3 pcs of joss sticks and pray, when you're done, just insert into the censer as respect. You may need to walk slowly and no shouting as its a shrine after all. The walk way could be quite slippery. Watch out there! See more..
    
29. 3.5 Jimmy's Durian Orchard (38 reviews)
    - Musang King delivery to doorstep
    Spent 1-2 hours Farms
    
    
    A medium-sized family run orchard located near Bentong, Pahang. We have approximately 300 trees that produce various varieties of durians such as Musang King, D24, tekka, D2, D101 and of course the classic "Durian Kampong". Jimmy's Durian Orchard is just a short and easy one hour drive (or less) from the heart of Kuala Lumpur. As it is situated right beside the Karak Highway, you won't have difficulty finding it! Visitors to our orchard may enjoy an educational talk by the owner, Jimmy where one can learn about the biology of the trees, how to identify varieties of durians and also most relevantly (and importantly!) how to choose a good durian. Rest assured that you will only be given fresh good quality durians! After stuffing yourself in the orchard, visitors are encouraged to buy and bring back durians, We offer quality that you just can't find in the city. Other than durians, the orchard also has mangosteens, rambutans, duku and a variety of local fruit. Facilities are decent in the orchard (we have clean toilets!), however please bring some mosquito repellant and a hat or umbrella when visiting the orchard. See more..
    
30. 3.5 The Paddock (38 reviews)
    - Recommended for family activity.
    Spent < 1 hour Game & Entertainment Centers • Horseback Riding Tours
    
    
    The area is clean, green and properly maintained. Horses look healthy, stables clean and the fee is affordable. Enjoy the guided horse ride or try out the archery. I think they should add another activity to attract more visitors. One of the most beautiful and relaxing place in Fraser's Hill. This is a must if you come with family. See more..
    
31. 3.5 Robinson Falls (37 reviews)
    - Awesome Fall but difficult to find
    Waterfalls
    
    
    We had to asked 3 groups of people before we can locate the starting point. Actually it is quite simple. Instead of going to Mardi as advised by a few online write up and looking for path 9 from there, a more straight forward way us to head towards the Cameron Highlands Hospital. Just 500m before reaching the hospital ( there is a sign indicated so), there is a road on the right where there is a huge billboard and a small Robinson Waterfall sign. Turn into this road about 100m , there is another billboard and a concrete bridge with colourful tyres . Follow the bridge in and all the way straight and the waterfall will be there in less than 1 km. Cool nice place at the waterfall! See more..

33. 3.5 Arena of Stars (26 reviews)
    - Excellent concert venue
    Temporarily closed - Closed until further notice Spent 2-3 hours Arenas & Stadiums
    
    
    With a seating capacity of 5,000, Arena of Stars is both spectacular as it is intimate. The high ceilings accompanied by the world-class audio system, L-Acoustics, allow for a stadium-like atmosphere with its pristine yet powerful projection while the enclosed space gets you closer to your favourite stars. Performers to have graced the stage include legends Sir Elton John, Sir Cliff Richards, pop group Black Eyed Peas, Jolin Tsai and Chinese superstar Na Ying.

34. 3.5 Taman Gelora (25 reviews)
    - Great spot for Jogging & Zumba
    Parks
    
    
    This Jogging spot is located nearby Telok Cempedak and just by the seaside. If you're looking to jog with gentle sea breeze then this is the right experience for you. There are many people around during the evenings. Most of them were either Jogging , taking a stroll and a large number of them were involved in the free Zumba lessons offered. The Jogging route roughly measured 1-1.3 km/ round. It was a great experience ! See more..

    There are two places to stay around Tasik Chini, the resort (haven't been there) and Rajan Jones Guesthouse. We stayed at the guesthouse for only RM 35 pp/per night including breakfast and dinner. A lunch is RM 5 extra. You can call the guesthouse at 017-913-5089. Unfortunately Rajan Jones has passed away but his lovely wife takes care of the place now. She can arrange boating trips (RM 100 per boat 3hours). The lake is still a nice place to visit although there are not so many flowers anymore. Also the Kampung of Orang Asli is worth a visit (combine it with the boat trip). We stayed one night.

    - Good And Chilly Water Fun
    Bodies of Water

    Art Museums

41. 3.5 Tasik Biru (7 reviews)
    - Striking colours and contrasts
    Bodies of Water
    
    
    This is well worth coming to see, incredible colour, but expect a jarring contrast with the quarry at the end of the lake, the runoff from which just drains straight into it. Look in the other direction though and it is beautiful. Don't expect a car park - or barriers from the cliff edge - this isn't an official tourist attraction as a previous review complained about. Glad to have stopped off en route to Mersing and spend fifteen minutes here. See more..
    
42. 3.0 Kolam Air Panas Bentong (7 reviews)

    - Excellent!
    Spent < 1 hour Game & Entertainment Centers
    
    
    The zombie infection is upon us. Right across the country, outbreaks are threatening to engulf society as we know it. The government of Ripley’s Adventureland tried to contain the situation covertly, but they failed. Now it is time for everyday citizens to become EPIC and help combat the emerging situation, to prevent the zombification of the entire nation. See more..

46. 3.5 Bona Cinemas (3 reviews)
    - Nice cinema with good popcorn
    Movie Theaters
    
    
    The leather seats is new and clean. Is similar to shaw cinema at SG. It is abit confusing with price of the seats. After clarifying with the staff, the normal one is in the middle, more expensive one is at the back and apparently the most expensive is the first row. But would recommend the popcorn, it use caramel and not sugar. See more..
    
47. 3.5 Alive Museum Genting (3 reviews)
    - Total Family Fun For Everyone and Couples
    Speciality Museums
    
    
    3. We visited this type of museum before in they are all pretty much the same…3D Museums. They are fun for everyone and they even have a romantic charm to them. Make sure you bring a camera and fully charged battery, you might need an extra one too. You walk through a gallery of 3D art and you pose with them in order to get the 3D effect of being in the art itself. Make sure you devote at least 1-2 hours because there will be so many places to interact with the pictures that you will want to do them all…we skipped a few and still we were done in an hour. Take your time and don’t rush through the photo’s and use the suggested angels and directions they provide for each art piece. As you can see we had a lot of pictures and we still have a lot more, that we haven’t posted here.See more on our IG...check out our links in our profile. See more..

    Went here when we visited somewhere else near. On the day i went, the gate is closed so the car forced to park on the hill slope and it's quite dangerous.
