Bukit Tinggi Travel Guide

Bukit Tinggi is also known as a French village in Malaysia because it surrounded by colourful European buildings, high castles and the famous French-themed resort; Colmar Tropicale. Stepping into the town surrounded by European design and architecture supported with the cooler weather will make you feel like you were in a European village. That is one of the reasons why it attracts not only tourists but also locals to visit.

This resort is famous for their spa and wellness services so if you happen to stay here, do not forget to experience their excellent spa treatment. It is a first European spa resort in Asia and it is definitely a place to get ultimate relaxation for your muscles and mind.

The Japanese Village and Botanical Gardens are situated 3500 feet above sea level. Both places are located just next to each other. The main attraction in the Japanese Village is the Japanese tea house where you can learn more about Japanese culture by participating in the tea ceremony. You can also rent a Japanese kimono to take pictures. The Japanese Village is a must place to visit when you come here because the place is so beautiful and it is the first Japanese tea house in Malaysia.

My Thoughts

Bukit Tinggi Berjaya Hills is really suitable for families or a couple trip. I recommend to just stay for a night or a day trip because there are not many activities to do around there. You can easily finish all the activities in 1 or 2 days. Coming via shuttle transfer to Berjaya Hills is a good choice as you can avoid paying the entrance and parking fee and get free entrance tickets to the Japanese Village and Botanical Gardens. Also, there is a free shuttle bus provided to go to the activities venue so you do not have to worry if you did not drive a car to Berjaya Hills. Overall, Berjaya Hills is a good destination for a short getaway and it is the perfect place for relaxing with your family or loved one.

      Hi Kim, Sorry for late reply. yes there are charges for Japanese village and rabbit farm. You just have to pay the entrance ticket (RM 15 for adult & Rm8 for children ages 4 to 12) and this entrance ticket includes passes to Japanese Village and Botanical Garden as well. For rabbit farm, the entrance fee costs Rm5 for adult and children.

      Japanese Village and rabbit farm are located just 5 minutes drive from Colmar tropicale. if you are not driving, you can take free shuttle bus provided by Colmar Tropicale 🙂
