GENTING HIGHLAND

Genting Highlands Pahang, Malaysia

Genting Highlands in Pahang, Malaysia near Kuala Lumpur
Genting Highlands is an integrated resort development comprising hotels, casinos and a theme park in Pahang, perched on the peak of Gunung Ulu Kali at 1,800 meters high. Nestled near the border of Selangor within an hour's drive from Kuala Lumpur (about 35km), Genting Resort presents a popular weekend getaway from the city heat, conveniently connected by the Karak Highway and major trunk roads, along with a cable car service from the satellite town of Gohtong Jaya. On a clear day, the peak overlooks lush valleys of rainforest stretching towards KL, a breathtaking view for visitors as they enjoy the cooling weather and serene mountain environment.

Since 1971, Genting Highlands has remained the only legal gambling outfit in Malaysia, riddled at some sections with kitschy architecture, bright lights and squawking tourists. While the casinos are central to Genting Highlands, the theme park provides fun rides and activities for adults and children alike, while the First World Plaza is a colourful shopping center with a collection of family restaurants and trendy outlets. Meanwhile, more tourist attractions lie within the vicinity of Gohtong Jaya, such as the Strawberry Farm and Chin Swee Temple.
