Genting Highland, Selangor
Genting Highlands or 'City of Entertainment' is a perfect
getaway destination for many Malaysians. The highlands are very popular with
people that want to escape the hot and humid weather in Kuala Lumpur.
Temperatures vary often around 16/24 degrees, which is quite cold for people
from KL. There are a couple of massive hotels in Genting Highlands, where you
can book a room for a very affordable price. Apart from the casinos, you also have enjoy
the things below....
Amusement park and other attractions
Genting Highlands actually is more of a place of refuge for
the local population. Entertainment and fun are the main reasons why people
visit the place, but many people also come here to temporarily escape the heat
of the capital Kuala Lumpur. The area is filled with hotels; they all offer
some kind of entertainment, that being in the form of an amusement-park, or in

Las

Shows and special performances
The Highlands
are especially famous because of the gambling public. When you visit the
casinos yourself you will notice many Chinese gamblers with very serious faces.
We did not see anyone smile unless immediately after they had won something.
Later we found out we arrived at the wrong time, as usually at the end of the
day the serious gamblers can get a bit grumpy if they were not able to make any
winnings. This is definitely the Asian version of Las Vegas.
Shopping
at First World Plaza
At the first floor of the huge complex you will find many
shops selling all kinds of products. There are numerous trendy shops with
clothing, jewelry, shoes and accessories. There also are a few restaurants, and
of course the fast food places like Burger King, McDonald's, Pizza Hut and KFC.
Among the coffee bars are Starbucks and Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf.
