Cameron Highlands is Malaysia’s largest and best-known hill resort. Nestling the borders of Pahang and Perak provinces are the Cameron Highlands. Walks through lovely little villages, visits to the butterfly, strawberry, honey bee farms and sprawling tea plantations or meals at the delightful Tudor-styled country inns, are all pleasurable and relaxing activities to be experienced here. You can’t beat the weather up here. A few days out of the sweltering lowland heat will surely recharge your batteries.
One other popular activity in Cameron Highlands, actually more of a tradition, is to have tea and scones. This very English tradition dates back to the days when English colonial officers used this hilly location as a cool getaway from the heat of the lowlands. Bird-watching and trekking are also popular activities here.Situated 1,500 metres above sea level, Cameron Highlands comprises a series of little townships that include Ringlet, Tanah Rata, Brinchang, Tringkap, Kuala Terla and Kampung Raja. What’s more, it’s easy to get to. Cameron Highlands lies less than an hour off the main North-South Highway, and is a pleasant, easy 3.5-hour drive from Kuala Lumpur.
海拔1820公尺的金马仑高原,可以从霹雳州的打巴启程前往。这座高原是由一位测量员WILLIAM CAMERON,于1885年所发现。他形容此处是“一座拥有漂亮山坡的完美高原,受崇高壮观的大山所围绕”。这座高原受一层层的山脉及山谷所覆盖,风景如诗如画,美不胜收。刚开始这里吸引了茶叶及林地种植者,因为他们需要比较寒冷的气候种植作物。接着,许多华裔菜农跟着看上这块地方,最后一项一项的经济发展源源不绝而来。
