Trip to Bukit Tinggi

Bukit Tinggi is just over an hour's drive from Kuala Lumpur City centre. The Colmar Tropicale is one of the village that located in Bukit Tinggi which is a replica of a collection of buildings from a north-eastern village in France dating back to the 16th Century. It's surrounded by lush tropical forest land.

When we get to the entrance, we have to pay RM16 for adults and RM8 for children below twelve. There, you can enjoy the various entertainment at Colmar Tropicale. A clock tower at the entrance welcomes the visitors. You need to walk up and down the curvy concrete staircases to view the entire development.

The theme hotel is made up of eight blocks of architectural wonder, each with its unique style, from its colourful roof tiles to cobblestone ground. The hotel has several outlets, where you can dine in the French way. Central to the village is Colmar Square where the aroma of the blooms will tantalise your senses. There are fountains and park benches in the square for relaxation after a hard day's work browsing in the 17 theme shops, or should one wish to take a breather from participating in the various activities. The drawbridge reminiscent of ancient castles, clock tower with an original cuckoo bird clock, and the viewing tower complements the ambience.

Live bands and snake performances entertain the visitors on a stage. A clown juggles balls and pins, rides on his cycle, hops around playing tricks and acting merry. Authentic French food is served from sidewalk cafes and restaurants. The tables are placed strategically around the square so you can enjoy a meal or glass of wine whilst taking in the ambience.

This is the lobby of the Colmar Tropicale Hotel. We parked our car at the basement carpark here.



It's raining heavily today. We try to borrow an umbrella from somebody. Fortunately, there's a big brother who works opposite the hotel borrow us their umbrella. Then, we try to run over to the live show area to watch the show which will start in about 5 minutes.
Hooray.... We're here on time, but we're completely wet. They start it with Moo Moo dance. Haha... the girl wear the cow head and dance.










Woo.... this dance is real good. I like it..... very very exciting.










There's a Micheal Jackson song as well. I think my daddy can do the zombie dance better than this two girls. Hehe....










The belly dancing.....










Daddy said I have the same tummy like the girl. Fat fat tummy...... I can do the belly dancing too. My tummy look nice???

They end it with a dance and a group of peoples coming out with Malaysia Flag.



Haha.... the rain has stopped. I see a playing room in front. Let's go and check it out, daddy!!!
Wow..... the big bike!!! I want to try it mommy.







Okay.... next ride, the little donkey. Haha.... daddy ride it together with me. Another ride with the JieJie who sit in the car that I also want.
Hey.... there's the slide in front with some peoples inside. I want to go in and make friends with them. So nice..... I can swim in the sea of balls

It's time to check out the tower..... there's a snowman and a christmas tree downstair. We can either take a lift up to the 2nd floor or walk up using the staircase.


Enjoying the beautiful view..... feeling like I'm having holiday in France. Hehe.....

We're going back downstair.

Feel a bit hungry..... let's go and check up the beautiful decorated cafe. Hmmm..... nothing much left to eat inside.
Daddy said maybe it's time to back to KL to look for food. Really hungry already......
Bye Bye......Colmar Tropicale!! Take more photos before going back to the hotel carpark.
