Is Cameron Floral Park Worth RM50? Here’s What You’ll Get for the Price

If you’re planning a trip to Cameron Highlands, don’t miss out on one of its most enchanting attractions: Cameron Floral Park (CH Flora Park).

Yes the answer is WORTH IT, with a condition- if you really enjoy taking photos.

Nestled in the cool hills near Kea Farm, this breathtaking garden offers a dreamy escape filled with vibrant flowers, whimsical structures, and endless photo opportunities.

What to Expect at Cameron Floral Park

1. Stunning Terraced Gardens

The park is home to beautifully layered terraces bursting with roses, petunias, hydrangeas, and other temperate blooms—many of which are rarely found in Malaysia’s tropical climate.

2. Instagrammable Spots Everywhere

Some of the most iconic photo zones include:

- Stairway to Infinity – A spiral staircase that looks like it stretches into the clouds.

- Golden Maple Bridge – A scenic bridge overlooking rolling fields of flowers.

- Hobbiton Village – A cozy, fairytale-themed section with picnic-friendly huts.

- Glasshouse Petunia Walkway – Perfect for soft, indoor flower shots.

3. Family-Friendly Features

There’s a mini “Forest Explorer Playground” for kids, and plenty of shaded areas to sit and relax while enjoying the cool highland breeze.

🎟️ Cameron Floral Park Ticket Prices & Info

-Opening Hours: Daily, 9:30 AM – 7:00 PM (last entry ~5:30 PM)

-Location: Near Kea Farm Market, Cameron Highlands-Parking: Park at “Flora Park Parking”, then take the 4WD shuttle to the entrance.

Picnic Packages & Shuttle Service

Flora Park offers curated picnic setups at selected scenic spots. These include shuttle transfer, props, and floral picnic setups (advance booking recommended). No outside food or drinks are allowed, but there is an in-house café.

📸 Tips Before You Go

- Visit early in the morning to avoid crowds and capture the misty, soft light.

I really enjoyed taking photos here, just thought that it could get a bit stuffy and warm.

Turkey

What to Wear in Turkey in November: Outfit Ideas + 7-Day Itinerary

Planning a trip to Turkey in November? I was in the same boat not long ago, searching for outfit ideas that were modest, comfortable, and practical for the ever-changing weather. If you’re wondering what to pack and how to dress across different regions — from Istanbul to Cappadocia — this guide is for you.

In this post, I’m sharing what I actually wore day-by-day, along with the key places we visited throughout our 7-day Turkey tour.

What’s the Weather Like in Turkey in November?

November in Turkey brings autumn-to-winter transitions, depending on the region:

Istanbul and coastal areas (Canakkale, Kusadasi): Mild to cool, 10–17°C.

Central regions (Pamukkale, Konya, Cappadocia): Cold mornings and evenings, often below 5°C.

Turkey Travel Dress Code Tips

Layering is essential: Bring thermals, sweaters, and a good outer layer.

Respect religious sites: Cover shoulders, chest, and legs. A scarf is needed for women entering mosques.

Footwear: Prioritize walking shoes or sneakers; some ruins and towns have uneven paths.

Dress comfortably, and be ready for really cool breeze (I mainly wore sneakers and flats!)

7-Day Turkey Itinerary with Outfit Suggestions

Day 1: Istanbul to Canakkale

Visited: Hippodrome of Constantinople | Hagia Sophia | Blue Mosque | Topkapi Palace

Day 2: Canakkale

Day 5: Cappadocia

Day 6: Cappadocia to Ankara to Bolu

Day 7: Bolu to Istanbul

Final Thoughts

Turkey in November offers a magical blend of history, culture, and crisp air. If you plan your outfits wisely, layering for comfort and modesty, you’ll be ready for everything from ancient ruins to cozy cafés and scenic valleys.

Penang

3 Restaurants in Penang Where I’d Celebrate a Special Night (Tried & Loved)

I’ve always believed that the best kind of celebrations are the small, meaningful ones — a good meal, a beautiful setting, and the right people. I’ve been exploring spots around the island that make me go, “Yes, I’d totally celebrate something here.”

These aren’t your typical travel-guide picks — they’re personal favourites I’ve either celebrated at, or would recommend for a cozy birthday, date night, or just because-it’s-Thursday-and-you-deserve-it dinner.

So if you’re looking for a place with good vibes and memorable food, here are my top 3 picks in Penang island for a special night out.

1. The Firewood

If I had to describe this place in one word, it would be: elegant. I remember being impressed the moment I stepped in — the lighting, the open kitchen, the little details. It has that “quiet luxury” feel without being too intimidating.

What stood out most was the food — I ordered steak as per usual and it was really impressive and easily one of the best steals I've had.

It’s not a cheap meal, but if you're celebrating something meaningful, it’s worth the splurge.

🕯️ Best for: Romantic celebrations, anniversaries, birthday dates
📍 Location: Georgetown
📷 Tip: Sit near the kitchen if you love watching chefs in action

2. Fam Dining

I discovered this gem after doing some research on XHS. It was love at first post — moody lighting, intimate setup, and what looked like an 6-course meal with gorgeous plating. I knew I had to try it.

Dining here is like being invited to someone’s home where the chef just happens to be amazing. There’s no à la carte — you just trust the chef and enjoy each course as it comes. And it’s surprisingly calming not to have to choose anything.

🍷 Best for: Couples, small birthday dinners, foodie experiences
📍 Location: Jelutong area
📆 Tip: Make a reservation — they don’t take walk-ins

3. Kool Kongsi

Now this one’s totally different. Think artsy meets chill, perfect for birthday dinners with friends or something casual but memorable. It’s an open-concept space and little artistic corners you’ll want to photograph.

Food Recommendation: A Must-Try: Kongsi Bikini Sandwich. Further, the steak is surprisingly good — dip it in the egg before eating to elevate the flavour. Last but not least, don’t miss their Tiramisu! It was a delightful surprise and the perfect dessert to end the meal on a sweet note.

🎉 Best for: Group hangouts, casual celebrations, birthdays with friends
📍 Location: Hotel Mokoyozo Georgetown
📸 Tip: Go before sunset for the best lighting if you want pretty photos

I know Penang is full of amazing restaurants, and everyone has their own favourites. But these three places felt personal to me — the kind of spots where you forget to check your phone because the food, the people, and the moment feel just right.

If you’ve got your own go-to place for celebrating, I’d genuinely love to hear about it. Leave me a comment or DM me on IG — I’m always looking for my next excuse to dress up and dine out ✨

✨Bonus:

If you're looking for a bar to chill after dinner, how about a Rooftop Bar tucked in Georgetown? Visit Sphere for a enjoyable night. Do note that it may be a bit hot since it is an open-air bar and doesn't come with AC. Might not be ideal if it's raining as well.

Well, I was lucky when I visited. Even managed to catch the sunset! 😍
