Introducing Genting Highlands in Malaysia

Genting Highlands is a world-famous tourist and leisure destination; Genting Entertainment City is a pearl that Malaysia is proud of. Her original name was "Jending" Plateau, also known as "Ren Zhen" Plateau. Later, it was renamed the "Yunding" Plateau due to the mist, mystery, beauty and cool climate in the mountains. It is located on the eastern slope of the middle section of the Kebao Mountains in southwest Pahang, with the lush Semba Mountains to the east and the lush Pengbua Mountains to the west. It is only 52 kilometers away from Kuala Lumpur and has very convenient transportation.

The car was speeding on the open, flat and winding six-lane mountain road. Watching the beautiful plateau scenery through the car window is indeed refreshing. In front of us are overlapping mountains, green trees, luxuriant flowers and grass, streams and waterfalls, and the scenery is green all the way. However, the weather suddenly changed. It was sunny just now, and suddenly the sky was full of clouds and fog from nowhere. Then it started raining heavily, making the ground and the roof of the car crackle. Sound. The tour guide Mr. Zhuang told us: This is the typical "Malay rain", which is the climate characteristic of the Malaysian plateau area. Mr. Zhuang also said that due to abundant rainfall, Malaysia is rich in forest resources. All we saw along the way were lush green trees, and the mountains and fields were full of green. As I spoke, the sky suddenly cleared up, the sun was shining brightly, and there were no clouds in the sky. It rained for about ten minutes. After that, the ground was still dry without any traces of rain. It felt like the rain had never rained before, it was just an illusion. Along the way, this kind of "horse rain" came and went at any time, which simply confused many tourists on the same bus.

Yunding Entertainment City is built on the top of a mountain among the clouds and mist. It has almost countless high-rise buildings, hundreds of star-rated hotels, and popular vacation apartments. There is also a grand opera house and a circular cinema with advanced equipment that can accommodate thousands of people. As for the latest international entertainment and sports facilities, they are all-inclusive. In short, this place is not only a summer resort where "it never gets cold at high places", but also a world of entertainment of all kinds. On the day we arrived in Genting Highlands, we stayed at the five-star Alana Hotel. It is located in the southern part of Genting Highlands, surrounded by undulating green spaces, like majestic green waves. The various buildings in this hotel are like shining gems inlaid on a green velvet carpet, or can be compared to a group of colorful fleets on the sea, which are extremely beautiful and moving. The hotel has all the facilities you need, including two tennis courts and a golf course.

The next morning, as the sun was rising, we set off from the Alana Hotel and took the mountain cable car for about ten minutes to the core area of ??Genting Entertainment City. Looking out in all directions from the cable car, you can have a panoramic view of the beautiful plateau. In particular, the realistic models built along the cableway allow tourists to see hundreds of colorful statues sculpted at a one-to-one scale, as well as houses, caves and "tree houses" that express the Malay The working and living conditions of the indigenous people are vivid and beautiful. Speaking of "houses in the trees", it is also a major feature of the mountainous areas in Malaysia. In the jungle, wherever there are trees with strong and forked branches, small and exquisite wooden houses are built on them. I counted on the cable car. I saw thirty or forty of them along the way. The tour guide Mr. Zhuang told us: This is the famous Malay "Tree Village". It is a "replica" of this ethnic group's "Water Village". The local Chinese call it "The Roosting House". The house on the tree has a simple and beautiful appearance and a unique charm. If you climb up the spiral staircase to visit the house, you will see that although the indoor area is only five or six square meters, it is equipped with telephones, lights, furniture and bedding. At the same time, there are windows and small balconies, which are good places for people to stand and lean on the railings to look out and enjoy the scenery. Mr. Zhuang said that these "tree villages" in Genting Entertainment City are places for tourists to visit and stay. Now they are all open to the outside world. Foreign tourists only need to register with the local government reception department with their passports and can visit them for free. Stay there. However, I heard that a kidnapping case had occurred in this area, and now few foreigners dare to stay in the "Tree Village".

When visiting Genting Entertainment City, you can try the adventure and excitement of the double rotating roller coaster and the spiral wave car, and you can also watch the thrilling giant magic tricks from Las Vegas and other places, as well as France Song and dance performances, as well as horse riding, swimming, tennis, golf and other activities, you can taste a variety of Western food, Asian food or authentic Malaysian food in dozens of restaurants with different flavors. However, Genting Entertainment City is the most famous The venue is a large-scale casino. It is known as one of the four largest casinos in the world. It is listed after Las Vegas and Monaco in the United States, surpassing the Grand Lisboa Hotel in Macau and Walkerhill in South Korea. Called "Monte Carlo of the East".

Malaysia is a country that prohibits gambling, with the exception of Genting Casino. Gamblers and tourists from Malaysia and all over the world enter this colorful and tempting casino with different mentality. Of course, most of them are pure tourists. However, although there are high-roller gamblers with millions of dollars here, there are also quite a lot of entertainers, such as some local housewives who carry vegetable baskets and take the free shuttle bus from the entertainment city from "down the mountain" Cars, often come to play "slot machines". Some of them had children with them. They put the children in the children's playground first and then went into the casino to have fun. Judging from the chips of the "slot machine", each bet is only two cents ringgit (approximately equivalent to Chinese RMB 50 cents). From this point of view, it still has a certain degree of entertainment. I have been to the Lisboa Casino in Macau, and the slot machines there cost two Hong Kong dollars per bet; I heard that in Las Vegas, the per bet was two dollars. Therefore, Genting Casino is more focused on entertainment.

After visiting Genting Highlands, the tour guide Mr. Zhuang said to me: "Anyone who travels to Malaysia will not have a good time in Malaysia if he does not visit Genting Highlands." These words are very important. , it made me know: Malaysians are so proud of Genting Highlands.
