Introduction
A trip into the Cameron Highlands provides a chance to follow the example of colonial administrators, who headed into the hills to get away from the humidity of the lowlands.
Here, visitors can see tealeaves being picked and packed at the boh (Best of Highlands) plantation and other tea estates, or look around fruit and flower farms.
The Cameron Highlands - named after William Cameron, the surveyor who mapped the area - also play host to some highly regarded restaurants and enchanting hotels, where afternoon tea and cocktails at dusk remain treasured traditions.
