Malaysia offers a melting pot of cultures with strong Chinese, Indian and Malay influences.  The country also has stunning natural scenery, from the lush Cameron Highlands to some of Asia's best beaches.  Add the history of Melaka and the excitement of Penang and Kuala Lumpur, and it's easy to see why Malaysia has long been considered a travellers favourite.  Most travellers in Malaysia stick to the Peninsula, where the hectic modern pace of Kuala Lumpur is offset by the colonial-era Cameron Highlands Hill Station or the simple beauty of Langkawi.
