3May2001 - Colmar Tropicale at Bukit Tinggi (A French-themed Village)

It was our first far distance vacation with my girl friend(she is my wife now), this was our 2 days 1 night stay dated on 3rd&4th May 2001 . The place is pretty nice build and totally different feels like we aren't staying in the tropical country. Even it is a small place, but is absolutely a place for us to free our mind and away from a busy city.

Not many photos taken in there, but will go back to stay there for another time soon. During that year, the second phase still under construction, I think now looks greater with an English castle & more interest spot to go.

"Colmar Tropicale is the unique French-themed attraction. It stands 2,600 feet above sea level on 80 acres of natural forestland. The first of its kind in Malaysia, it is modeled 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 marvel at the lively street entertainment and exciting stage performances from local and foreign artistes.
The true attraction of Colmar Tropicale is apparent. The spirit of hospitality and welcome is epitomized by warm and helpful person."






View from the the castle drawbridge at the entrance.


A minute walk entering to the archway then look through the old buildings.



People are spending their time along the street.



Visited to the near by Japanese Garden.



Koi fishes swims around in their harmony pond .



A street performer was playing along the street.



Outside view of the French-themed resort.

The belly dancer invited people to join them.

This kid was so happy in front of the fountain.

We shoot photo of the performers after their show.

We were stayed in 3rd level and the rooms actually on top level.

Their future plan is building a Rome-themed casino.

I am still deeply remember the second morning had slightly rain, the floor a bit wet and sky still without bright sun, really felt like staying in Europe.

View from the clock tower top floor and the wishing well can be see it from here too.

Every morning the resort's staff keeping the place clean.

Before leaving the place, a small rabbit farm near by is worth visiting if you have any kids together.
