Genting Highlands

Genting Highland known as Genting Highlands Resort is a 35 km drive from Kuala Lumpur. An integrated resort comprising of hotels, shopping malls located at the peak of Mount Ulu Kali at 1,800 meters high nestled between the states of Pahang and Selangor.

Genting Highland is a popular weekend getaway from the city being mainly connected by major highways, trunk roads and cable cars service and is accessible by car within an hour drive from KL , or accessible by two different cable cars, Genting Skyway which at its opening was the world's fastest and South East Asia's longest gondola lift, and the newer Awana Skyway.

Awana Skyway


Launched 2016, the new Awana Skyway system can carry up to 3,600 passengers per hour with 10 passengers per gondola at maximum speed of 6 ms/s  (21.6 km/h), the 2.8-kilometre journey up the mountain peak takes about 10 minutes. 



On our way to the gondola...





The cable car system is 3.38 km to the Skyway and is recognized as the World's Fastest Mono Cable Car System" with a maximum speed of 21.6 kilometres per hour (13.4 mph) and the "Longest Cable Car in Malaysia and probably in Southeast Asia. 


Such a smooth ride, and lucky we have a nice fair weather.  Genting Highlands has a spring-like climate, with yearly temperatures no higher than 25 °C (77 °F) and rarely falling below 14 °C (57 °F) yearly. 


Ate Ann's nice pose wondering what time we shall take off.

Trying to copy Ate Ann's  I wonder pose.. which was badly done.

That ended in a terrible laugh. Epic fail talaga.

Approaching..

Shopping starts.

And this is where we had lunch. Another buffet in another day! 
Good luck to me :)




Happiness and love,
