Introduction
Fraser's hill or Bukit Fraser (1524m) was named
after Louis James Fraser, a Scotsman. Bukit Fraser
is located 105 km north of Kuala Lumpur and can
be reached in 2 hours by car. There you will find
an English cottage and a golf course. Surrounding
the golf course are all kinds of accommodations
for both the locals and the tourist. The forest
is also just around the corner. All the forest
trails there are accessible and full of interesting
things. |

Mountain

I
could not recall where I took this photo or
what this mountain was. I guess I took this
photo because it was all misty and nice. This
picture best reflects the coolness of hilly
areas where city folks do not see often. |

In the forest you will get to see all kinds
of fascinating plants and insects. In some
parts of the forest there might be leeches
lurking around so do be mindful. Below are
some of the minute orchids that can be seen. |

Tall and beautiful Fern trees
Fern
trees are commonly found along the roads and
more can be found in mainly secondary forest.
They are less useful as a shade provider but
they can certainly beautify the place. |

I find so delicate is the relationship between

Hope all viewers enjoyed my photos of Fraser's
