7 Big Attractions in Malaysia's “Little England”

If you have a passion for traveling then having a holiday at any Cameron Highlands accommodation is one of the best decisions you will ever make as a tourist. Located 300 km from Kuala Lumpur and 1,500 m above sea level, Cameron Highlands boasts a climate that paved the way for beautiful natural attractions. In fact, the British called it “Little England”.

Despite the nickname, there are at least 7 big things waiting for you here in Cameron Highlands:

1. First up, the hills is home to the largest tea plantation in Southeast Asia. There's no secret that the English love their tea and that's probably why they made the area home for many years. In addition, the views from here is simply fantastic especially during sunrise.

2. Sunsets here at not bad either, espeically from Gunung Brinchang, the highest peak of Cameron Highlands at 2,032 m. Get your phones and cameras ready because the skies here during sundown is jaw-dropping glorious.

3. If you think that's amazing, then wait till you see the Mossy Forest. This place is like something straight out of a fantasy-adventure motion picture or even better. The plants and trees here strip a lot of moisture from the clouds that explains their mossy or cloudy appearance.

4. Sometimes you see something and you have to do a double-take because it's hard wrap your head around it. One of these things is the rafflesia or some call the biggest flower on Earth. Flowers, now that's another thing Brits love. Although this one looks scary, smells bad, and won't be an appropriate gift to your girlfriend on Valentines' Day.

5. Did you know that Cameron Highlands is also the leading producer of flowers in Malaysia? Go on a stroll with your significant other and feast on the sight of extraordinary multi-hued gardens reminiscent of paintings done by Chagall.

6. Strawberry farms are also a big hit here. Due to the cool climate, the highlands make the perfect area for planting strawberries. Places like the Kok Lim Strawberry Farm even lets guests harvest their own batch of berries.

7. The best resorts in Pahang are also found in Cameron Highlands because tourism is, and has always been, a booming industry. Just to mention a few, there's Cameron Highlands Resort, Strawberry Park Resort, and Century Pines Resort. The latter is a Tudor-inspired property that offers luxury suites with balconies, free Wi-Fi, cable TV, double beds, mini-bar, safe, telephone, and mini-refrigerator. It also has various conference rooms, a bar, gym, restaurant, sauna, spa, steam room, and gift shops.
