MY VISIT TO CAMERON HIGHLANDS

During Labour Day public holiday I and my family visited the smallest district in the state of Pahang, yes I went to Cameron Highlands. It is the largest and mostly known for its highland paradise much likely of an English village especially the smokehouse , old buildings and the flower gardens around it, so beautiful. We used an alternative road from Kuala Lipis to Cameron Highlands it was quite far from my hometown Kuantan, about 430 km. First I was so tired but upon reaching Kampung Raja I could feel the cool breeze and saw a lot of flowers and vegetable farms along the way to Tanah Rata it really freshened me. My mum told me there are 4 main townships and 2 small settlements in Cameron Highlands which are known as Tanah Rata, Brinchang, Kea Farm, Tringkap, Kuala Terla and Kampung Raja.

Finally at about 1.00 pm we checked in at Pines Resort , Tanah Rata it was a big and beautiful resort with a small fish pond around the corner of the resort and a park across the road.

                                                           

After our lunch we went to Mardi Agricultural Technology Farm it’s a place where research is done on plants so it can bear more fruits , more resistance to insect, parasite  and healthier. Two wonderful things I saw here are the apple trees with fruits and grape vine. There were a lot of different farms there for example vegetable farm, daisy farms, rose garden, fruit farm, orchid farm and cactus farm.  We left the farm about 5.30 pm.

                                                                       

                                                                                                           

                                                                                               

As we were tired of the long journey the night we spend at the resort.  The next day, Saturday we planned to go to Brinchang , Big Strawberry Park  and Kea  Farm.  The weather was very cool and towards noon it started to rain heavily so we had our lunch in Brinchang which is famous with a lot of food court and restaurant. Than we spend some time at the Weekend Open Market my mum bought some fruits and vegetables there.  At  3.00 pm we left Brinchang to Kea Farm due to holidays the road was quite jam it took us more than  one hour to reach there. I saw a lot of stalls selling fresh vegetables ,fruits, souvenirs , products of locals, potted plants  and flowers. I bought some key chain and other souvenirs for my friends before returning to our resort at 7.30 pm.
