Malaysia boasts an exciting year-round calendar of world class and unique local events, ensuring visitors have endless opportunities to enjoy nature-based adventures, enriching cultural experiences or fabulous shopping sprees.

The cool and peaceful highland resorts make great vacation retreats. Places like Fraser’s Hill, Cameron Highlands and Genting Highlands (all in Pahang) and Maxwell Hill (Perak) serve as an escape from the hustle and bustle of city life and tropical heat.

Those who like calm lakes can visit Pahang where Tasik Bera, the largest natural freshwater lake in Peninsular Malaysia, and Tasik Chini are located. Tasik Kenyir in Terengganu, however, holds the record as being the largest manmade lake in South-east Asia. The lake also acts as Malaysia’s largest rock-filled hydroelectric dam!

Muzium Negara along Jalan Damansara will keep visitors enthralled with its galleries dedicated to the country’s flora and fauna, culture and people, weaponry and the arts. There’s also the Royal Malaysian Police Museum at Jalan Perdana for those who are curious to know more about the Malaysian police force. The museums mentioned above are both located in the Klang Valley.
