On a cool day this place was amazing. Perched on the hillside and the middle point of the Genting Highlands sky gondola ???? the Temple has an amazing Buddha and 9 storey pagoda. The walkway includes the storey of the hell and rebirth.

My Australian Group of 5 pax enjoyed themselves. Early morning is the best to go to this place and you can find many people trekking so the chances of getting lost is remote but stay in course. And don’t venture too far away from the normal route. A map can be obtained from most of the Hotels or from tourist information centre

I will start off by saying that I strongly recommend you book a tour with a local tour guide for two reasons. 1. They will most likely drive you up in a Land Rover or other such vehicle that will be well suited the winding, narrow road that leads up to the forest and 2. You will gain invaluable knowledge that the guide has cultivated over years. I booked my tour through Father's Guest House where I was staying and Raju was my tour guide. He was so knowledgeable and shared the names of most of the plants in English (UK and Canadian), Malay, and Chinese! He also shared lots of knowledge on the ecology of the forest and conservation as well. It is best to do this on a clear day otherwise you will be stuck in the clouds as that altitude is sometimes also known as cloud forest. But the views from the top are amazing and it is some good exercise to walk up and down all the stairs.
5. Kuala Gandah Elephant Sanctuary

You'll never forget the day you helped give an elephant a bath (additional request with the help of a guide). Currently elephant riding has been temporary stopped until further notice. Get up close and personal with the amazing semi-wild elephants at Kuala Gandah Elephant Sanctuary. Be sure to book in advance because the center has strict daily visitor quotas.

My boyfriend and I spent a day at the elephant sanctuary on our way from the Cameron Highlands to Taman Negara. We chose the educational guide (120RM for a private tour) which included feeding the baby elephants, watching them being given milk, an educational short film, the ‘elephant show’ (introduction to each of the big elephants) and feeding the big elephants. We paid 10RM each to bathe with the baby elephants in the river. The sanctuary itself is extremely peaceful, surrounded by the river and national park. Our guide Mira was lovely, extremely knowledgable about the sanctuary and the elephants themselves and made for a wonderful day. We stayed in Temerloh and paid 150RM for a taxi from our hotel, to wait for us all day and then take us back to the bus stop. This was a fantastic day, and good value for money (don’t bother with a prebooked tour unless you need the transport!). We highly recommend!

Very nice beach, empty during the day with some nice local food outlets - well worth walking along the bridge to the second, smaller bay for a swim...
