Ride Into The Clouds :: Genting Highlands

Genting Highlands is a resort development comprising hotels, casinos and a theme park. Perched on the peak of Mountain Ulu Kali at 1,800 meters high, it is within an hour's drive from Kuala Lumpur (about 50km).

It's a popular weekend getaway from the city heat & buzz. You can enjoy the cooling weather and serene mountain environment. Those into gambling will certainly have a good (err..or bad) time up there. Kids will surely enjoy the crazy awesome rides at the park.

I went up couple of months ago. I've been there before (and swore I will never drive up again!). So, i took the Genting Sky Train instead.

I must say, it was a great cable car ride up the mountain, eventually dissapearing into the clouds and coming out into a foggy mountain top.

If Genting is part of your travel itinerary, I'd recommend taking the cable car. The trip up was quite an event.
