[MALAYSIA] Cameron Highlands Flora Park

08:00 Travel Bunny 0 Comments


Cameron Highlands Flora Park is one of the most popular and "Instagrammable" attractions in the region, known for its elaborately designed floral landscapes and themed photo spots.  Nestled high in the cool, misty air, this horticultural wonderland is a must-visit for nature lovers, photography enthusiasts, and anyone looking for a magical escape.

Getting there: Shuttle is required to enter the park. You cannot drive directly to the park. Visitors can park at the designated "Flora Park Parking" near Kea Farm and are then ferried to the entrance via a 4x4 shuttle. The entrance fee already includes this essential round-trip transport.

From the moment we arrived, Flora Park is a visual feast. I really felt like I was stepping right into a fairytale.

Flora Park truly lives up to its name, showcasing meticulously landscaped grounds filled with a diverse collection of flowers and plants. The park is designed around various themed areas, making it a beautiful spot for photography at every turn. Petunia Garden is an indoor section filled with a stunning concentration of petunias. The tunnel or wall of colorful petunias are brilliant even on a rainy day.

Flora Hills is the scenic areas with diverse blooms like roses, daisies, hydrangeas, and seasonal flowers that thrive in the cool highland climate. It is one of the biggest highlights of Cameron Flora Park. 

As we moved up through the staircases, we reached the Glass Santuary at the top of the hill. Glass Sanctuary is where you will find various species of flowers that can only be seen or grown here at the unique place of Cameron Highlands.

Stairway to Infinity is another popular optical illusion spot where stairs appear to stretch into the sky. 

Golden Maple Bridge is  striking yellow bridge that provides a panoramic viewpoint over a sea of flowers, perfect for that wide-angle shot.

While not true cherry blossoms, the delicate pink blooms at Sakura Garden create a charming and serene atmosphere, ideal for a peaceful picture.

Four Season Flower Garden is where visitors wander through meticulously manicured sections showcasing a rich diversity of flora, from roses and hydrangeas to exotic species thriving in the cool climate.

The boys had so much fun playing at the children playground and ball pool that they were reluctant to leave this area.

The compound is huge. Hobbiton Village is a whimsical area with a "Hobbit House" theme. We didn’t visit Hobbiton Village due to time constraint. Maybe next time.

Glasshouse Café is a café with indoor seating and glass windows to enjoy the views and various refreshments.

While the flowers are the main attraction, Flora Park offers more than just scenic views. For a truly special experience, you can book a 2-hour Picnic Packages (RM 288) at Sakura Garden or High Tea in the Hobbiton Village(RM 388 - RM 488), which include your entrance tickets and a curated food spread for 2 pax. You can also join their Terrarium Workshop at Hobbiton Village.

The park involves walking on uneven terrain and stairs. It is generally not stroller or wheelchair accessible. Comfortable walking shoes is recommended as you'll be navigating steps and slopes!

Best Time to Visit: Head there early on a weekday to avoid the biggest crowds and enjoy a tranquil experience, or consider the cooler months from March to September when many plants are in full bloom.

Cameron Highlands Flora Park is more than just a feast for the eyes; it's an immersive experience that captures the essence of the highlands in a stunningly artistic way. Don't forget your camera, and get ready to spend a few enchanted hours in this magical floral kingdom!
