A journey of about 12KM from the main road, we finally arrive to the Boh Estate after a steep and narrow roads. What you need to do is to horn all along the way to make sure the cars coming from the opposite side are aware.
You will see flowers like this, before even you climb up to the View Point.
There is only 1 way up and you will see the whole Boh Estate, all under your feet.
The steps are steep and it takes about 15 minutes to climb up to the hilltop.
At Boh Estate, you will enjoy the most breath taking scenery!
You will just simply fall in love with the aroma of the tea leaves !
There is a Boh Teashop whereby all the visitors will sit and enjoy different flavor of Boh Tea. This is where we ordered the Peppermint Tea and some Pies.
With a bright sunny day with proper lightings and angles, you will have some good pictures with good background sceneries.
Next Travel Destination: Krabi, Thailand. (Stay tuned for Underwater Photos!)

After a round of sight-seeing, we went back to the Carnation Apartment and prepared the Steamboat dinner together with mom. Yes, we even brought up the Steamboat set!
This is where we stay, a newly built apartment for families.
In Cameron, Broccoli in Purple Color is selling at the price of RM4.50 each, very expensive. (In local supermarkets, you can get at RM1.00 each. It tastes a little bit of sweetness.
Mushrooms in Cameron Highlands is pricey, too.
A steamboat without meat!

Hey peeps!
First of all, maybe you would like to check out my Flickr Album on Cameron Highlands?
Cameron Highlands is great! There are so many colorful photos after all.
A drive to Cameron Highlands takes me about 4 hours from Kuala Lumpur. Please bear in mind that there are total of 2 routes going up to Cameron Highlands.
- Tapah Route - Old route, curves and bumpy. A lot of landslides happen and very dangerous
- Simpang Pulai Route - New route and straight
Route taken : Kepong - Rawang - Highway - Tapah - Simpang Pulai - Brinchang - Tanah Rata.
Petrol Consumed : 1.5 Tank (Gen 2)
Accommodation : Carnation Park Apartment (Provided by relatives)
Places Visited:-
- Bee Farm
- Boh Estate
- Brinchang Pasar Malam
- Orchid Farm
- Cactus Plantation
- Others
We left Kepong at 12.00pm in the afternoon and we were at the Brinchang Pasar Malam at 5.00pm. The Pasar Malam is huge and it is only operating on the Friday, Saturday and Sunday.
It has variety of fruits, vegetables and flowers to be sold all over the place. Not forgetting, raw corns and strawberries!
After a round of bargaining at the Pasar Malam, we headed up to Tanah Rata and where we pulled over to a Cactus Farm to purchase some cactus.
The above looks like fingers,
