Weekend @ Bukit Tinggi Berjaya Hills

Happy Saturday! Blogger has been blocked for few days so I can't update anything for a while. Today I would like to post about my visit to Bukit Tinggi, Berjaya Hills. I went there early this year, before I get engaged with Mr F. I know the story would have been outdated but I hope it’s still valid and can guide anyone who never been to Bukit Tinggi.

Bukit Tinggi is +/- 56 km away from Kuala Lumpur. We went there by car and had to pay RM5 for the Karak Highway toll. The journey took around 45 minutes’ drive and when we reached Bukit Tinggi, we need to pay for the entry ticket at the price of RM12 per person.

There are free shuttle available; we can use them for free (since we already paid the ticket) to move from one checkpoint to another (masa perjalanan shuttle ada dimaklumkan pada   setiap tempat menunggu). Mr F and I decided to use our car and save time since we reached Bukit Tinggi quite late, around 4.30 pm.

Firstly we went to French-themed village, Colmar Tropicale. It is a replica of a collection of buildings from a north-eastern village in France dating back to the 16th Century.

in this village there are a lot of small restaurant that serve French food

but I didn't try any (makanan mahal-mahal maa..)

Rehat sebentar sebab letih kena mendaki bukit yang tinggi

Then we went to Japanese Village. It encompasses a Japanese Tea House, Sakura and Ume Tatami Suites, and a Botanical Garden. There is an hour long authentic Japanese Tea Ceremony conducted by Kimono clad ladies at the Japanese Tea House located within a Japanese garden with mini waterfalls and a pond of multi-coloured Koi, but we had to pay RM20 to join the ceremony so we decided not to try that =(

banyak pokok warna hijau, sejuk mata memandang

bersama ikan koi yang gemuk-gemuk. diorang diberi makan apa agaknya?

Next, we went to visit The Rabbit Park just in a minute before the park closed to visitors (operating hour only until 5.30pm). Because they were closing, we are allowed to enter the park for free (pheww..jimat tiket rm3 per entry)

kesian rabbit lari lintang-pukang sebab tak nak kena tangkap dan 

dipindahkan ke kandang lain

There are other places to visit, but we ran out of time. Maybe next time we’ll visit Horse Trail and Botanical Garden. Overall, Bukit Tinggi is a nice place to visit since it represents a few cultures that we rarely seen in Malaysia.

*rasa macam nak ke Bukit Tinggi lagi, pemandangan yang cantik dan mendamaikan jiwa. Recommended place to visit especially for the city people who want to run away from hectic, tired day for a while
