GENTING
HIGHLANDS
I
rarely made visits to Genting Highland due to its long journey drive
from Ipoh to Kuala Lumpur, which may take 5 hours of traveling by
car.
So
far, I have been to the highlands about four times in my life.
The
only reason for me to travel here, is to indulge in a little fun at
the casinos and I enjoy the mountain's cooling weather, here .
