Malaysia is a country that’s rich in cultural diversity and have plenty to offer when it comes to tourism. Being a tropical country and is warm and humid whole year through, Malaysia is a perfect place for some outdoor adventures or some eco-escapade. There are plenty of states you can visit in Malaysia, but here’s sharing some the road less traveled kinda places that you should visit when you are in Malaysia; Pahang.
Whenever we talk about Pahang, things that will cross your mind is probably the well famed National Park, but there is more to Pahang than just the National Park.
One of Pahang’s hidden gem that is a must visit is the small town of Bentong. Locally famous for it’s wondrous production of ginger, Bentong has much more to offer than just it’s lively morning market or the hot water spring.

But my wanderlust in exploring this fascinating town does not just stop there.
My family and I had the opportunity to stay in janda baik villas in Bentong and discovered that there are a couple more places that you can visit while you are in Bentong, Pahang; Bilut Extreme Park, Bee Farm/Bee Museum and Valley Agro Park.
