A Short Trip to Cameron Highlands
A friend asked if I would like to join them to Cameron Highlands yesterday. It has been ages since I last went there. So, I said yes.

We had a quick breakfast and drove from KL to Cameron Highlands. Soon, we arrived at Cameron Highlands. It was nearly 1pm and we made our first stop at the tea valley.
Cameron Highlands
beautiful tea valley
Cameron Highlands, discovered by Sir William Cameron in 1885, is one of Malaysia’s most extensive hill stations. The size of Singapore, it occupies an area of 712 square kilometres (275 sq mi).

We did not spend much time there. We just visited a few farms.

Cameron Highlands' famous strawberries

Now, we can also grow grapes in Malaysia.
After visiting the farms, it was almost 5pm. We had to meet up with some other friends in Ipoh for dinner. On the way to Ipoh, we bought some fruits from roadside stalls.

We also saw many cabbages being planted openly by the road. No one steal them. The people in Cameron Highlands are very honest.

We had a scrumptious dinner in Ipoh and spent some time at a night market. After that, we drove back to KL. It was already 11pm when I reached home. What an eventful day!
this post is a tribute dedicated to wenn @ Experiences (the post title 我的經歷 is My Experiences translated into Chinese).. i believe Wenn is one of the busiest women on earth, she takes care of both her shop and family, administers the FB page of her shop, gets active in FB and blogging, yet she has time to leave me comments!! i have met this nice and well-kept lady only once, but got lots of goodies that she sent to me on and off, that's so paiseh, haha!! dear WENNderwoman, thank you so much for your continual support albeit your busy schedule, do you like with this mimic of your blogging style?? hehehe.. :p

      Never thought it will be wenn today! Really unexpected! When I read the title 我的经历，I was still blur sotong wondering who's that (Also the consequences of taking medicines, blur blur and drowsy), until I read the first few lines, I recognize the fonts and the background color, then only I realize it's wenn.
      Her blog is stress-less to read, as she posts freely, SHORT and straight to the point, with photos.

      Cameron Highland is a great place to visit! I love the place! It's about 90 minutes of drive from Taiping, not too far, but I am a bit sick of the winding roads when approaching the highland. There was once I felt like I'm going to puke when on the way down the highland, as Aden couldn't sit still and kept on jumping in the car, I need to carry and hold him tight and that makes me dizzy!

      Anyway, too bad that CH isn't cooling as before, of course still slightly colder than lands but if compare to many years ago, their temperature rises already.... I guess partly due to global warming?

      But it's a great place to shop for fresh vegetables! And food! My MIL will bring 2-3 big recycle bags whenever she goes CH, and come back with all bags full! Vegetables there might not be very cheap but they are fresh! And some not easily seen at the markets here. Needless to say their fruits are big and fresh too! Even flowers are a lot of varieties!

      But there's one thing I don't like about CH is the traffic, even normal weekend also jam, guess it's due to their narrow road, and only one lane per direction. If on holidays then no need to say la, sure even jam! Went there on Labor Day and I can sort of expect it'd be very jam, but din't expect we'd jam for hours! Cause there was road construction going on and only one lane is accessible for both directions.

      yeah, Cameron Highlands is actually a nice place and would be also nice to put up a night there.. love the cooling weather, though i think it's not as cooling as before due to global warming and also vast development there.. and albeit being very commercialized now, still not a bad place to go there to freshen up :)

And if the weather is bad (too hot or heavy rain) then I won't love to drive, and I don't like to drive at night too, cause I got astigmatism, driving at night a bit uncomfortable for me, but sometimes also no choice la!

      Twin, same here.. One day trip is always tiring.. But with kids around, they are still so small, I don't even feel like going out.. Going out for a while to the mall is still ok.. But if day trip, susah a bit with two very small kids around.. If one kid, still ok..

      I don't mind traveling to and fro but it's better if I could stay at least for a night. I remember the last time I stayed in Cameron Highland was an impromptu trip.

    6. Hayley16/6/14 11:28 PM

      Day trip can be fun but tiring. Fun in terms of we no need to pack things and can back to our home sweet home by the end of the day, I know some people including myself not get used to sleeping in hotel/other places one. And also save time on surveying which hotel to book, and also no need to plan itinerary so detailed, hehe!
      Tiring cause have to spend hours on the road, unless got friend can take turns to drive, then not that bad la. Hubby and I always go CH on day trip one, cause it's near to us, plus we think CH nothing much worth a stay there, all can done during daytime so we don't really plan to overnight there. I have never stay at CH before, all also day trip, hehe!
      Of course it depends on company also la, if go with a gang, then nice also to overnight, book an apartment then can have steamboat/drinking session til wee hour! Erm of course without kids la, haha!

      Very true, CH can be explored within a day. So it's actually not necessary to put up a night there.

    8. [SK]18/6/14 11:22 AM

      yes, day trip and just a brief stay there, not me driving so okay lah, muahahaha!! but all the way from KL it would be nicer if we can stay a night there lah.. hotels may not be cheap but then afterall, not that we always go there also mah.. people from Ipoh may go there for day trips often since it's so near..

    12. Hayley16/6/14 11:38 PM

      Boh tea plantation is nice! I mean the one at Sg Palas, if not mistaken. But to go there is really a 'journey'! The road to the plantation is so so narrow and winding! I think if one's driving skills isn't good, he/she sure cannot make it one, imagine the narrow road is accessible for both directions! And yet it is so narrow! Have to drive to the side and let each other pass through slowly... And the road is so long! I went there once only, that time hubby was the one driving, if for me I'll sure patah balik, haha!
      Anyway, when we able to reach that plantation, all the hardworks and sweats are worth it la, cause the place is really so beautiful! And the cafe, is nicely located on the hill! With lots of snacks to choose from, and their nice fragrance tea!

      Steamboat restaurant, CH got A LOT! Mostly are charcoal type one, and if not mistaken, price is quite reasonable, food also good, since their vegetables are fresh, ;)

      Strawberry farm, must go lo! Self pluck strawberry is something tourist must do, especially if you're a strawberry fan!
      And now got the Lavender Garden, also a must go, all lavender looks super pretty there! But hard to take photos la cause always crowded one.... Your photo end up includes other people as background one, haha!

      hahaha!! seriousness and maturity?? i wonder what Wenn thinks if she saw this being associated with her blog, haha.. anyway, i think she's just making things simple, short and sweet..

      oh yeah, CH would be a nice place to relax but i think if you are going there during public holidays, it would be quite crowded.. already very commercialized, plus packed with tourists, may not be nice at all.. so, would be nice to go there on normal non-peak days, for a night stay, and probably the hotel will be cheaper too :)

    I love to visit Cameron Highlands too except the traffic jams that connect the Brinchang route often tore my brains out! Adoi where's the govt's pledges to improve the roads and "NO" to all the new developments that caused landslides? The whole highlands have changed so much since the last few decades. Even the famous Silk Maker from Thailand Jim Thompson loved the hills and got lost inside, never to be found. I hope the town planners will help to improve the roads and prevent soil erosions so that it will continue to be the best resorts in Malaysia. I think they should build Cable Cars like the one in HKG's Lantau Island.

    Seems to me it's an impromptu trip la, hehe! Usually hor KL people will overnight at CH one...
    Anyway, you guys go with 1 car? All guys ar? Most guys don't really like visiting farms or buy veges one, hehehe.. But of course can go there makan makan, and enjoy the fresh air la! So is CH cooling?

    There are indeed many interesting things to see at CH, some vegetables are even new to me, never see those before. And some cactus, weird yet interesting!

    I think the next one you will mimic will be Sharon, Reana, Hayley or Princess Ribbon, if you mimic Princess Ribbon, remember to say "my like, my suka", muahaha

      Whichever one he mimicks, it sure comes out perfect. I believe in it.

      yes, the car to Cameron Highland got to be in good condition. Otherwise, the trip won't be fun.

      It's good to revisit Cameron Highlands. You would love all those farms and the fresh fruits and vegetables too.
