    This Saturday I took a stroll on Genting Highlands, located 51km northeast of Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. There is an amusement park and casino at the top of the highlands, but I didn't go that far - instead settling to explore some nature below. Just a few photos from my walk:

    It's very nice to see these fotos as they remind me of my time in Malaysia. There is so much to see and experience there. If you look carefully in the undergrowth, you might fiond a few leeches.

    Enjoy your trip....and post more pics please. :)

    Thanks for the tour Frank. Looks like you had a nice walk. Interesting contrast between the manicured gardens at the entrance of the park and the natural ruggedness of the rest of the pics. Very neat. The pines at the entrance are pretty.

    What a beautiful place. I would rather stay with the beauty of nature too.
