9 Dec 2007 - Frazer's Hill
Every year my dad will take us out for a family trip. This time my dad want something peaceful and ‘cool’ . End up he planned to go Frazer’s Hill. First first it was so excited and fun. The first few hours of our journey, we play a fool in car, chit chatting.....till we reach the foot of Frazer’s Hill..........
Took in car while reach the foot of Frazer
The next thing I found myself lying deadly in car, holding a plastic bag . The road towards top of the hill was damned steep, small and broken. It took us 2 hours of suffering to reach our destination , in the end all of us start vomiting. I told myself that this will be my 1st and also last time to visit Frazer – that was before I saw the magnificent scenery of Frazer’s Hill and feel the extraordinary fresh air.

Although many friends did tell me about how boring to go to Frazer’s Hill, for me I like that place. For nature lovers or jungle trekkers, they would definitely love it!!! Yes , I do agree that Frazer’s Hill’s town is very too small , but this place is a heaven of jungle trekking and sight seeing. There’s a variety of trekking trail, from the shortest to the longest ,from the most challenging to the lesser one.
Do you still remember last few years ago there’s a few Singaporean kids get lost while jungle trekking in Frazer’s Hill ? Yes, that was the Bishop’s trail.
As we went there wrong timing , the raining season,the air was moist and weather was so damned cold – 19 Celsius . The midst was too thick ,we can’t go for any trekking , so we just take our time tour around. Of course there’r a few interesting places that tourists must visit.
Allan’s water – where tourists can ‘row-a-boat’ , enjoying the view of the Allan’s lake . If you ‘r interested to buy some flowers home , beside Allan’s water there’s a place where they sell flowers-in-pot , the prices are reasonable- but my mum said they 'r cheap.......
Paddock - where tourists can have their horse riding, archery game and wood ball game.The price are reasonable too.

Ye Olde Smoke House- i recalled there's also a smoke house in Cameron Highlands. Frazer's smoke house is actually a restaurant ,located at hill side, so you can see magnificient view from there.
Frazer’s town – there’r a few shop lots, restaurants, souvenir shops, a small clinic, a police station and post office. Located in the centre of the town is the famous Frazer’s Hill clock tower - just for you to take some photos as memory.
That's the clock tower
Flowers in Frazer are blooming extra freshly compare to flowers in the city...POLLUTED.....
nice right?!!
restaurants and shop lots
If you plan to do golfing , there’s a big golf course beside the town.
I guess Frazer’s Hill is meant for someone who want to rest ,doing some sight seeing or jungle trekking. But some advice……do not went there during monsoon season if you want to go for jungle trekking. The thing I regret the most during this trip is that I ‘ve missed my jungle trekking. AND…….please fill your fuel tank , there’s no petrol station up there…..by the way, bring some Maggie Mee and some food- the food up there are quite expensive.
