today we are taking ourselves out of the hustle and bustle of the city traveling
four hours North in a thousand six hundred meters above sea level we
will be exploring one of the Hidden gems of Malaysia called the Cameron Highlands
we'll be showing you The Greener Side of Malaysia starting with epic tea fields
and some of the most picturesque Mountain Rangers welcome to Cameron Highland
today we are doing a full day tour here in the Cameron Highlands we're going to be taken to
various locations and we have a very local tour guide named Lucas are you famous after this yes
you will be okay all right my name is Lucas so I'm a tourist guide for Malaysia after a grueling four
and a half hour drive we have finally made it to Cameron Highlands we're gonna tell you more
about that in a second but our first stop of the days actually come to a butterfly farm which is
pretty cool to see Malaysia's National Butterfly which is black and it's got green stripes on the
on the back it's actually really really beautiful to see them up close I love butterflies there's a
guy behind me right here he's going crazy we're gonna chill here for a bit it's kind of just
a warm-up to Cameron Highlands we're really really high up about a thousand six hundred
meters above sea level so temperatures quite nice let's go see some butterflies foreign
could be super interesting but their lifespan is only about one month so
unfortunately they don't have a lot of time here
and they're kind of scary some of them are super fluffy and they're really big
what's that it's a millipede what do we call them in South Africa
Lolo look at this guy oh wow he's so cute
crazy hi hello
hello this guy is a mood
oh he's wheezing he's whizzing oh no really really hey Billy look how he's drinking
that was awesome so you actually promised us that you would teach us some Malay words
yes can you teach us some what about a strawberry strawberry all right uh
strawberry okay uh in Malay we usually call it strawberries oh strawberry as well okay
that's okay you know what they might be a word they might be a word but uh you
know what I can't think I can't see anything you can actually learn the basic words like
for example how are you yes how are you we usually call it okay how are you how are you
so we've arrived at our next part after seeing all the butterflies and it's a
giant Fresh Market here in the Cameron Highlands they produce a lot of fruit
and vegetables strawberries and here people are crowding to get some strawberries some
fresh fruits and veg and part of our too is we get to explore this Market it's the only
way that the people living here in the Cameron Highlands can sell their fresh produce and we're
going to go and explore and see what great fruit and vegetables and snacks they have
yes are these fresh bread fresh no you saw them yes okay is that yourself yes okay okay
they look good oh okay good thank you thank you they look so good like um kind of like what you
see in a picture but it's like real life because there's so many strawberries being produced to
get strawberry ice cream chocolate strawberry durian this kind of looks like granadilla looks
really good whoa come on I really I will cone what do you like about cone a big lump of knobs
can you imagine a more beautiful
so what's unique about Cameron Highlands is the cone is white they call it like a
diamond corn and apparently you don't need to cook it you could just eat
it just like that and apparently it's creamy and sweet I like corn
look at this one Black core that's interesting that's new black and white corn

so right now we've arrived at our next spot which is to have lunch and it's not any ordinary
restaurant we are actually having lunch at a golf course which is owned by the Sultan of pahang in
other words the king it comes here wax a few teas out the park and it's kind of special to
have lunch here we are having lunch at a round table and Lucas is going to tell us what we're
having also as we have arrived it is completely come pouring down it is raining like crazy right
now so I think this is the perfect time to have some lunch that is the sweet and sour fish fillet
all right eat omelette rice cracker you just measure the rice and you eat it accordingly
so we just had a fantastic lunch here even though it's raining we had some
really good curries some papadams some Curry vegetables and we even
had some strawberry ice cream to end off our lovely lunch so we're gonna
head off to the Tea Plantation now it's still raining so let's see how it goes
we have just made our way to the Tea Plantation and this is the main reason we came here to the
Cameron Highlands this is the tall staircase that we have to go down all the way to the
bottom and it's raining so this is my current shelter we're at Cameron Valley tea farm and
that's one of the biggest tea manufacturers in the whole of Malaysia so we're going to
make our way all the way down let's go see some really cool tea this is absolutely incredible
and only two or three hours just outside of KL we get to experience this in The Valleys
where they are harvesting hundreds of kilograms of tea every single day and
it's quite a heavy process for them to make it but they make over 500 kilograms of tea per day
all the tea is grown here they only grow black tea they don't grow green tea because that's made in
China the workers in the Tea Plantation can hold up to 40 kgs of tea on their backs look at this
we get to appreciate this beautiful Tea Plantation on a rainy day I don't think it could get better
than this maybe if it stopped raining and it's difficult to portray on camera the Rolling Hills
of tea it's massive and because of the rain we have this beautiful cloud cover coming over us
as much as we would have loved to show you the Glorious tea fields from above
unfortunately this is a no drone zone so you're gonna have to take it at face value
it's so quiet but you can hear the river passing through that all the rain has come down and this
river is passing through the valley can you smell any tea does smell like tea let's give it a go
smells good it's not like tea smells like a treat we were kind of complaining about
the rain but it's actually really cool to have the sounds of nature the sounds
of the water from the rain dropping on the tea leaves it's actually pretty cool
training and it's got a little bit cold in the mountains we're going to have a
catering for the national drinks here in Malaysia just to warm us up and this tea
comes straight from these plant Fields behind me that's so good
Last Stop on the list is this beautiful Strawberry Farm I'm in this giant canopy we are the only
growing these strawberries in this part of Malaysia because we're so high up perfect
climate to produce strawberries if you'd like to pick your own strawberry you can so yeah you can
see this one is ready to go the price depends on how many you pick of course so we've got such an
helpful insight today we've learned so much from Lucas he's really fantastic if you're in KL for
a few days and you're looking for something to do I highly recommend doing this it's a really
different side of Malaysia that we're seeing today it's just one day it's not going to take a lot
of time try some unique food see a different park that's not just the city life and we're in nature
foreign
to end up this incredible tour that we've had today our final stop is that
this waterfall it's raining right now it's actually pouring over us and the
sound of this waterfall is almost deafening Malaysia's obviously sad
that we're leaving because this is our last video here in Malaysia who knows
you know you have any of where we're going leave us your guesses in the comments below don't forget
