Chin Swee Caves Temple is a Taoist temple that’s set on a 28-acre plot of rocky forested land in Genting Highlands, where locals often frequent for religious rituals and enjoy the serene atmosphere. It was erected in honour of Reverend Master Chin Swee, a Buddhist monk from the Fujian Province. One of the temple’s most recognised landmarks is a nine-storey Pagoda, which is fitted with images of Buddha and thousands of lamps. Visitors are allowed to climb the steps towards the top of the pagoda, where they are greeted with panoramic views of the mountain. Within the temple grounds are gigantic statues of Buddha and Kuan Yin, as well as intricate sculptures of animals and inscriptions of ancient Chinese traditions and beliefs.
Chin Swee Caves Temple’s main square also houses several prayer halls for devotees to pray and meditate during their visit, while those looking to learn more about the Buddhism can explore the depiction of 10 Chambers of Hell, which are set along the fringe of the square. While this attraction aims to discourage evildoing by depicting the painful consequences in the afterlife, it’s relatively suitable for young visitors.
The most convenient way to reach Chin Swee Caves Temple is via the Awana SkyWay cable car. Disembark at Chin Swee Station and there are connecting escalators to take you down to the temple. Note that you have to keep your ticket as you can use it to continue your journey towards the peak of Genting Highlands or back to the Awana Station.

The Japanese Village is a series of Japan-themed attractions, spread across a garden landscape on a hill top at Berjaya Hills, Bukit Tinggi. Located five minutes away by car or shuttle ride away from Colmar Tropicale Resort, the village also comprises the Japanese Tea House, Botanical Garden, Tatami Spa, Ume Tatami Suite and Ryo Zan Tei Restaurant. Here, visitors can explore rock pools, koi ponds, flower gardens and a Japanese tea house, which conducts a traditional tea ceremony several times daily. Surrounded by lush rainforest, the village is also a popular spot for bird watching, with views of the valley from strategic points along the gravel trails.
Well I have never heard of any metro stations or KTM stations being near these places so I guess getting a cab is your best choice, I mean that is if you don’t have a car of your own. As usual I suggest using “Grab”, but it might be expensive than renting a car for whole day and drive yourself. The drive to these places doesn’t take more than hour from Kuala Lumpur itself, but the road is so green and beautiful that you won’t feel bored at all. But i heared there is a shuttle bus leave from berjaya time square to bukit tinggi but i never used it.So do not blame me if you can not find the bus from there and sometimes bus services do not follow exact timetable in Malaysia.
RM6 per child and RM12 per adult (the entrance ticket for Colmar Tropicale includes passes to Japanese Village, Botanical Garden and Rabbit Park)

If you are looking for Klang valley you have to walk 5-6 hours through mountanes forests. Then Gunung Bunga Buah is a nice cold place to hike,Its along 6 to 7 hr trek,through the beautiful forest with lots of flora and fauna. Had a great time soaking into the beauty of this place in a cold windy day. The trail starts behind Goh Tong Jaya off the road to the Cable car station near the strawberry farm. The trail follows the route of the old road to Genting highlands which has been abandoned for more than 20 years and is now largely overgrown. The first part of the trail to the old quarry is open but then the trail narrows through dense vegetation.
This is a nice cold place to hike, you can see quite a lot of nice plants especially during rainy season. However, this is a place that quite famous with the leeches, the blood sucker is everywhere in the lower trail. Do prepare for the bite. The climb is up and down , up and down. This is not suitable for beginner hikers . Before you reach the peak , there is a nice place with stone where you can actually see Genting , this place has a much beautiful view compare to the peak.

The recreation park of the Kedongdong river is located alongside the road from Batang Kali to Gohtong Jaya in the genting Highlands. It is quite basic, with some stalls, a popular place during the weekends for family picnics. The river water is clean and there are beautiful cascades.Not many people know that there is also a nice waterfall upstream of the park, less that one hour trekking away. From the car park there are steps down to the river and you will find that a rather vague trail starts there. Follow this trail or the river bed. Huge boulders make the river trekking interesting but also sometimes difficult.The waterfall comes as a reward with a huge pool. Unspoiled, beautiful jungle environment. You can continue the trail to the top of the fall, where you will find a second, smaller tier.There might be more waterfalls further upstream. We followed the river for another hour, but the trekking became more and more difficult. Maybe the local Orang Asli could help.
