Cameron Highlands was first discovered by William Cameron, an English surveyor in 1885 under his commission by the colonial government. It's located in Pahang, Malaysia. Cameron Highlands is a retreat with population of more than 43.000 people. This highland is one of Malaysia's most popular tourist destinations.

The only way to get to Cameron Highlands is by the scenic road from Tapah or the comfortable road via Simpang Pulai. As for me I prefer the road via Simpang Pulai, the road there is less winding and on some parts larger. But be careful on your way down cause, at some parts of the way there are sharp turnings. There are a number of drivers who land up in the ditch because they are too fast and don't have time to slow down when the turning comes. Otherwise it's a very comfortable road. One more thing to watch is the turning up to Cameron. There is a T junction, if you go straight you will go to Gua Musang. You have to the turn right towards Kampung Raja. The landmark is a tea plantation called the Blue Valley.
