Mossy Forest

This photo was taken from an observation tower on Gunung Brinchang and looks out over the Cameron Highlands. The jungle in the foreground is known as the “Mossy Forest”, largely because the tree trunks and branches are covered in moss, caused by the low-lying mist that gathers around the hills most mornings. We visited here as part of a half day tour visiting the area's tea plantations

Hotel is located at the non high end part of Bukit Bintang which you would appreciate if you are into bustling night life and crowds. Staff are consistently friendly all the time and the rooms are large and modern. Would stay here again the next time I am at KL.
