Default Genting Highlands vacation

hi, we will be at Malaysia in the first week of November and staying 2 weeks with my daughter, we have already booked a hotel in Kuala Lumpur and staying there for a week.
Headed to Genting Highlands in the second week and planning to be there for 3 days, so anyone suggest a good place to stay at Genting Highlands? Apart from casino and a theme park what other things to see?
Is car rental a good idea to get around the places, please suggest your opinions if you have been there, any advice would be appreciated.

You can reach Genting Highlands within an hour from Kuala Lumpur. As far as I know, the two theme parks are very popular with varieties of amusement rides perfect for all ages. Being one of the most developed hill resort of Malaysia, Genting Highlands offers excitement, entertainment and comfortable accommodation to each visitor.The Genting Highlands hotel is one of the popular one and visit Genting Highlands hotels page for more information.

Although the theme parks and casinos are the most popular attractions, the First World Plaza, Cable Car Genting Skyway and Arena Stars are the must see attractions of Genting Highlands. The First World Plaza is a big shopping mall and has over 100 outlets to do your shopping from fashion accessories to gifts. The Cable Car Genting Skyway is the world’s fastest skyway and don't miss this. You can have 3 1/2 kms journey up the mountain peak which takes only 15-20 minutes. it is really wonderful! The Arena Stars offers wide range of concerts which are done by world famous magicians, artists, entertainers and opera singers, so you can visit this as well.

I really enjoyed the dining in Genting Highlands, especially the lor mee which is noodles in black gravy. Try it in Penang food village, one of the popular places to have your dinner. Canteen Station Highland is also popular for Malaysian food especially fried noodles, roti canai, kueh and nasi lemak, but the price is very cheap.

Enjoy your Malaysia vacation with good choices of places and food, have a happy day!

You can rent a car from local car rental agencies in Genting Highlands or just book through Budget Car Rental company Malaysia. The rates are usually between $20 and $30 per day, so it's better you opt a car rental. Also visit car rental Malaysia page to find the best deals.

The Malaysian property market offers a good mid range investment opportunity to international investors seeking sensibly

is based upon the steadiness of the country's economy which is currently expanding at a sustainable rate and benefiting from
