Malaysia presents a fascinating mix of attractions for tourists. This remarkable country is abundant with natural beauty and has countless opportunities for outdoor adventure, and of course, delightful Asian cuisine awaits tourists here. For families traveling with children, Kuala Gandah Elephant Conservation Centre in Pahang is a great place to begin if your clan has a soft spot for these magnificent creatures. Selangor Fruits Valley offers something for everyone, with its tropical farm, interactive activities, and wildlife. Adventurous souls shouldn’t miss paragliding at Jugra Hill, which is also in Selangor. You can relax and marvel at the stunning scenery of Langkawi aboard a SkyCab cable car. Of course, no trip is complete without sampling the local fare, with mee goreng mamak, nasi lemak, and ayam percik being just a few of the must-try dishes. For a truly spectacular stay, scroll down for the top luxury villas in Malaysia.
