Cameron Highland 2015- Green View Garden

 If you are driving to Cameron Highlands using the Simpang Pulai route, you just can't miss this spot which is on the left side of the road.  This is one of the most popular tourist destinations in Cameron and the first stop when visiting if coming from the North.

Green View Garden is a strawberry farm and flower nursery off Kampung Raja, located close to the end of the Simpang Pulai highway before the township begins. There are some other tourist attractions on the same site as well, namely the Strawberry Moment Dessert Cafe, Avant Chocolate shop and House of Lavender.


An ideal location for visitor either heading out from Cameron, or else heading back to Cameron. Green View Garden is very easy to spot with its huge bright green signboard, big banner and ample parking space in front so you don't have to worry about finding a place to park.

Unfortunately the Avant Chocolate was not open the day we were here.


When you step out of your vehicle, the chill air rushed up to greet you. You will get your first taste of cooler weather and temperatures. The cold breeze sent shivers down your spine and chilled you to the bone.

Strawberry Moment Dessert Cafe serves predominantly a great selection of strawberry related cakes and desserts. Oh, wouldn't it be loverly? Lots of goodies for me to eat but I'm not a huge fan of sweets. Watch your sugar intake for those who long for sweet, sugary foods .


Stepping into the premises you'll aware of a wide range of local product made from their homegrown strawberries for sale.  I'll do some sightseeing first, I can buy souvenirs or gifts later on.
Inside lies a flower nursery and strawberry farm that visitors can view after  proceed to the spacious cafe for snacks and refreshments.


Step out of the cafeteria you'll see a pavement. To the left will lead you to the Green View Garden and to the right  is the potted strawberry plants farm and hydroponic farm. 




We took a stroll in the garden. Green View Garden was a sight to behold. Its a great place to start outdoors photography session,  Beautiful garden landscape can produce some of the most beautiful work a shutterbug can ever produce. You'll be taking a lot of photos and be amazed at the results.

There were strawberries, lavender, gerbera and many kinds of flowers grown here. Unlike another nearby attraction, this place do not charge an entrance fee. Besides plants, there were live animals reside here, namely ducks, fish, rabbits and birds.

We know it's not Christmas yet, but wouldn't it be nice to have bright, colorful, sparkly ornaments on the tree and as many lights around this place.


How nice people living at Cameron can  grow beautiful flowers and plants due to the cold climate?  My sister thinking this is a wonderful place for retirement. Slow pace of life. 


There are no high-rise buildings in Cameron Highlands, and it's natural mountains have been retained except you can see more and more resorts popping up in the area. More city folks are coming here on the weekends.  Now Cameron folks has a new fear: traffic jams.

My mom thought why are there so many colorful loo in the garden? Nah I make it up but those olden days it was common for people to have an outside loo which look like that.

What's up Duck?


I goofed it up. You're supposed to stand inside of the erected picture frame.

 Do Your Children Know These Hopscotch traditional Game?  Also called Aeroplane Jumping(Chinese Translation)


Hold that thoughts. This rabbits couldn't even wait to get into the room. Ahem, not in the presence of the children. please.
Those horrible smell came from the rabbit cage. No matter how often you clean their cage, within a couple of hours it stinks again. The rabbit urine  has a strong ammonia pungent smell became unbearable for visitors.

 For those with a knack for sweet snacks, this is absolute heaven. The outlet sells a wide range of strawberry influenced like cakes, salad, waffle and ice cream that can satisfy any degree of cravings. A good stopover before leaving Cameron Highlands to snap up some edible souvenirs.


Popsicle molds ice strawberry in disposable bag. It reminds me of my childhood where old-fashioned ice candy served in different  traditional flavors. 



It has a vast potted strawberry plants farm and 
hydroponic farm.  

When you use hydroponic techniques to grow your lettuce, you can expect faster and better production than you'd get growing in soil. The salad mix was more crunchy and sweet. 

Hydroponic plantation is the art of growing plants without soil, the nutrients are added directly to the water.  It ensures that the plants get oxygen, nutrients and appropriate light for optimum growth and a better yield.
Visitors are expected to pay a small fee for toilet entrance of 20 sen but unpleasant smell from the toilet was a little bit disappointing. So far the best toilet I've used at Cameron are Boh Tea Plantation, Cactus Point and Big Red Strawberry Farm, also known as Taman Agro Tourism.  Why Can't More Tourist Attraction Learn From Them?


Overall a good place to visit. Wish to spend more time there but it's already 2.00pm. Need to check in Cameron Pasar Malam Apartment,  Brinchang first. My sister stomach is growling and certainly would enjoy a steamboat in the cold weather!
