Malaysia Top 5 Destination for Backpackers

Kuala Lumpur - This city rocks. It has the world's tallest building, elegant colonial buildings, and remarkable natural treasures, and on top of all that nightlife that burns with energy.

Cameron Highlands - Come here to ease your sunburn after days on the beaches, or soothe the pain in your brain from last night's shindig in KL, it is pure peace with jungle walks and wild flowers, waterfalls and all things beautiful.

Georgetown - Penning Island - This is the oldest British settlement in Malaysia, and has architecture and buildings from that era, but also a strong Chinese flavour with temples, markets and theatres dedicated to their culture.

Melaka (Malacca) - In Melaka, Malaysia's most historic city, junks still sail the river, Chinese temples still stand, and relics of the Dutch, British and Portuguese can still be seen.

Tioman Island - Forget every other island paradise in the world and buy a one way ticket to this living fantasy. Magnificent beaches of a coral filled sea rich with brilliantly coloured marine life, jungles and high mountains, Tioman Island has it all and is waiting for you.
