As for this trip, I need to thank
Ms.Chan Ai Sim - a dear, dear friend and colleague, who also used her time-sharing free rooms to make this holiday possible. Not only did she book the place, she also highlighted all the places to eat, places to visit & even the timing of visitation to ensure a well-planned holiday. The weather was pretty kind (warm in the afternoon, drizzled in the evening) & we managed to cover almost all the places of interest in a single day. The girls played along my suggestion that Colmar Tropicale is actually a castle in one of her Barbie stories.
About this place:Colmar Tropicale is the unique French-themed attraction at Bukit Tinggi Resort. It stands 2,600 feet above sea level on 80 acres of natural forestland. The first of its kind in Malaysia, it is modelled after the 16th Century Colmar Village in Alsace, France and has retained the authenticity and European feel of its counterpart. Submerge yourself in the French countryside ambience at Colmar Tropicale as its beautiful architecture and furnishings bring you back to times of yore.
The lifestyle at Colmar Tropicale is highlighted by many attractions whether you arrive singly or with a family. Kick back with a cigar at Le Vin Wine & Cigar Bar and marvel at the lively street entertainment and exciting stage performances from local and foreign artistes.
For photo snappers, Colmar Tropicale is a haven with the castle drawbridge at the entrance being a favourite. Watch swans along the moat, sit around the square's fountain, wishing well and climb up the viewing tower for a grand spectacle of the resort and the picturesque cuckoo clock tower hich was designed after the Riquewihr Tower, France.
The true attraction of Colmar Tropicale is apparent.
