Food Paradise.Its Malaysia

Barely one great thing comes without another in our forward moving society. If it’s good then it will probably be expensive, and if it’s cheap you most probably wouldn’t consider it great, especially when it comes to food.

But in Malaysia you will discover a great variety of mouthwatering dishes for just a few ringgits prepared by local superstars. The little shop and street food stand owners in this country are my personal heroes. Whether you like Malaysian, Chinese, Indian or Thai food, the little “Malaysian” hawker-style food courts have everything for you for just a handful of ringgits.

The best place for food you can find on the South East Asian peninsula is probably Penang. A lot of different cultures consider this island their home and that definitely shows in their food culture. You can get a taste of nearly every corner of the world, literally…

You will find Cameron Highlands!

You wanna enjoy a cup of tea in an authentic British colonial house overlooking the most beautiful and biggest tea plantations in Malaysia? Yes? Then I have found the perfect place for you. The Cameron Highlands were named after Sir William Cameron, a British surveyor, and are located right in the heart of the Malaysian peninsula.

It is mostly known for its amazing tea plantations but has so much more to offer, especially its diverse wildlife. The “Camerons” is one of the few places in Malaysia that serves as a habitat for a wide variety of local flora and fauna. It is also home to the very rare mountain Peacock-Pheasant. If you love nature, enjoy a change of climate and a cup of tea, then this is your place to be…

A place with UNESCO world heritage status!

Malacca is a little pearl located just before the Strait of Malacca. It has been under occupation ever since 1509, first by Portugese settlers and then later by Dutch, French and British. Every occupant ended up contributing a little bit into what Malacca is known for today – a colourful and vibrant place, full of cultural heritage that has even been recognized by UNESCO in 2003.

Its colonial architecture is what put the label on this former fishing village. The Dutch Square or the Christ Church are the centers of attention of many visiting tourists from all over the world. Don’t miss out on a walk along the Malacca River just as soon as the sun begins to set!

Climb the magnificent Kinabalu!

The Kinabalu National Park is one of the many natural wonders of Sabah. It is also part of the UNESCO World Heritage site and attracts hundreds of thousands of visitors each year. Standing at 4,905 meters, the peak of Mount Kinabalu overlooks most of the park and it is one of the most accessible of its kind. It also leads in environmentally sustainable practices.

The mountain and its surroundings are among the most important biological sites in the world, with 6000 species of plants, 326 species of birds, and more than 100 mammalian species identified… It is a must to visit while you are in Malaysia.

Discover the biggest cave chamber in the world!

Gunung Mulu National Park is located in Sarawak, Malaysian Borneo and is also a UNESCO World Heritage site. The Sarawak Chamber is the largest known cave chamber in the world! It is 700 meters long, 400 meters wide and at least 70 meters high and was only discovered in 1981. They say that you could easily accommodate forty Boeing 747′s in there… Amazing.

Other notable caves in this area are the Benarat Cavern, the Wind Cave, and the Clearwater Cave, which contains parts of one of the world’s largest underground river systems and is also believed to be one of the largest caves in the world. It is a place so remote that you can only fly into Gunung Mulu. It is truly a place like no other in the world…

The oldest rainforest in the world…

Taman Negara, literally translated from National Park, has a reputation as the oldest tropical rainforest in the world. It is estimated to be more than 130 million years old and accommodates a lot of very rare animals. Its most famous rare inhabitant is the Malayan Tiger, which is rarely or usually never spotted…

It is also home to many species of monkeys, elephants and also a very critically endangered Sumatran rhinoceros. It is one of the last places on Earth to find the rhino, whose numbers are estimated at only around 200 animals left.

Sipadan, the Best Diving Spot in the World…

Sipadan claims to be the best diving spot in the world. Well one thing is for sure, the diving here is most definitely world class. If you’re lucky, you will be able to spot sharks, sea turtles and baracudas just to mention a few different aquatic species. The island can only be reached by boat and is under heavy environmental protection. Only experienced divers are allowed to dive due to the island’s strong currents…

But if you are an experienced diver you will certainly enjoy this island more than you have enjoyed anything else in your life. It’s the place to be and it will offer you a once-in-a-lifetime experience!
