At 105km north of Kuala Lumpur, 1,500 meters above sea-level on the Titiwangsa mountain range of Peninsular Malaysia is Fraser's Hill. Named after a Scottish pioneer, James Fraser, who set up a tin-ore trading post in the 1890s, it actually consists of seven hills. Fraser's Hill is truly an idyllic place for one to rest and to escape from not only the heat and humidity but also the hustle and bustle of city life. It is perhaps one of the prettiest of Malaysian Hill resorts.
There are hotels, resorts and chalets available on the hill. Tudor cottages sit amongst brilliantly coloured gardens shaded by lofty pine trees.
Fraser's Hill is popular with the locals and foreign tourists for its greenery, forest walks, fresh air and exotic flower gardens, not to mention the golfing facilities. There is a nature education centre where is a very popular and Fraser's Hill is the venue of the annual Bird Race which attracts many foreign omithologists.
