Fraser's Hill travel guide

Fraser's Hill is a hill resort located on the Titiwangsa Ridge in the state of Pahang in Malaysia.
Fraser's Hill derives its name from Louis James Fraser, a British colonial adventurer and fortune hunter. Many colorful stories exist about his life, including rumors that he managed an opium and gambling den frequented by miners in the hills of Pahang. However, in the early 1900's, Fraser vanished without a trace. Fraser's disappearance remains a mystery to this day. In 1917, a couple of clergymen rediscovered Fraser's Hill, and gathered support from the colonial authorities to turn it into a hill station to get away from the unbearable heat of the lowlands. Fraser's Hill is measured at 1,280 meters above sea level. Year round temperatures are between 64-68 degrees Fahrenheit / 18-20 degrees Celsius. This resort is situated approximately 64.6 miles / 104 kilometers from the capital city, Kuala Lumpur. (...) more....
