#TRAVELWITHME - COLMAR TROPICALE, BUKIT TINGGI

Wanted a short escape to somewhere colder and with green lushes? 

Located not very far from Kuala Lumpur approximately 45 minutes drive, nestled a French-themed resort in the state of Pahang - The Colmar Tropicale. It's my second visit since it was opened back in year 2000. 

Didn't plan for the trip, I went quite late on a Sunday noon. Reached the resort with an entry fee of RM 12 (per adult). Since the Japanese Village closes earlier than the French Village, we hopped in straight before it close for visitors at 6pm. It was a beautiful day with perfect weather! 



I didn't walk down, so no picture provided :)








Met this lil' friend when on the way back. So huge!












Kimono available for rent at RM 20 for photo shoot



















After enjoying the clean oxygen goodness, we then headed down to the French Village. Magnificent view - a painting look-a-like scenery.























Hungry after the park walk, it's time to hunt for food. We then stopped by Le Poulet Roti for our lunch. Ordered Classic Roast Chicken in Mushroom sauce and it's really delicious! Way better than I've expected. Normally tourist attractions dining is somewhat so-so.

After our lunch, we walked around the village for photo shooting. I love the weather!

just an ice cream will do the magic"

Call it a night, we left this beautiful castle and head back to the city of concretes.
