Ok, back to them. FL heard about the I-City from a relative and he decided to bring them to go see see look look. It is highly recommended by the relative, according to him, it’s pretty nice, lot’s of lights, trees, kids love the place and most importantly it’s free. haha, no lar, he said if you don’t go see it now, you might not have the chance to see it if the light bulbs all burn out. You know lar,  our gov, start something but never maintained one mar.. So have to go see it while the lights are still working!!

So we googled a bit and found the location of I-City, and we went on last Sunday, around 8pm+, took the NKVE to I-City.

It took us about 30 to 40 minutes to reach Klang/I-City and paid RM 4 for the toll.

the entrance of I-City

you can see the lights from far.. nice rite?

although it’s a Sunday night and it’s already 9pm+, but there’s still a lot of cars!!

you can actually drive up the hill but then we were afraid that we’ll stuck in the jam, that’s why we took a u turn and parked further.

so here you go, beautiful artificial trees

a lot of ppl, chinese, malays, indians…

nice!!

there are big and small cute trees

i think this is suppose to be a tree with fruits! hehe..

my favorite, the bamboo!!

besides the trees, there are animals like swans…

frogs..

deers…

peacocks.. but i think peacocks not nice lar..

a very nice combination, red and white….

a nice place for kids and couples and families..

nice place to take beautiful pictures too..

a closer look on the leafs

I think it’s worth to go once especially if you have kids. Kids love that place! It is really very nice and it will be a waste if our gov never go maintain it. So better go while the lights are all still working!!

We spent the whole night eating, drinking and ‘dry swimming’ (play mahjong lar. hehe…) and the next morning, we decided to go out yum cha (at the tea farm). Nobody wants to follow us out as they know it will be super jam (lot’s of ppl took the opportunity to go Cameron during the long holidays). They were right, the town is full or ppl!

There are a few tea farms in Cameron but the largest and the nicest one is the BOH tea farm. Of cos, it’s also more far away from town! It took us about 30 to 40 minutes to reach the entrance of the tea farm (there were a lot of cars) and took us another 15 minutes to get to the BOH tea farm. The road to the tea farm is pretty small and some parts only enough for 1 car to go thru.

here we are, at the Sungai Palas Boh Tea Farm

see, nice right? that’s the place for ppl to yum cha!!

We will need to climb up there. There are two ways to go up, one is the recommended way, hehe, nice road but a bit far, and the other way is the closer way, have to go thru the muddy road and also the tea farm. We decided to take the short cut, the mud road. 10 minutes later, after all the turning, jumping, climbing unequal stairs (some big, some high, so wide, some small), we’re there!!

Welcome to the BOH tea centre @ Sungai Palas

and the place to yum cha…

Before we go yum cha, we went to take a look at the little boh tea museum..

some history.. i didn’t really stop and read. hehe..

a tv room for ppl to watch the making of tea

and more tea related articles

the old rolling table for tea manufacture

this is the tool to cut tea leaves.. erm, i think so..

gunny sacks to transport tea leaves

and this is the old tea factory

the souvenir shop, i didn’t buy anything there, cos seems like we’re able to get everything from the supermarket, and cheaper too..

After a short visit at the museum and souvenir shop, we went to the yum cha place to have a cup of tea!! It quite nice to yum cha up there, with a cup of hot tea in your hand, you can enjoy the nice scenery + cool weather. NICE!!

Nice view!!

and more..

We were there for about 1 to 2 hours, chit chat, enjoying the view and the weather, then we went back. On our way down, we decided to take the recommended way, hehe, which is definitely nicer to walk. and guess what, it’s not that far also, as compared to the muddy road.. :p

on our way down

bye bye Boh tea centre!!

It’s about 45 minutes – 1 hour journey from the Sungai Buloh toll to Sungkai toll. Just follow the Ipoh’s direction and about 45 minutes later, you will see this..

After 45 minutes, we're almost there!!

After the toll (RM 13++), go straight (till you see the traffic light) and turn left. You will see this sign board. Go straight again after turn left and ..

turn left again.. Just follow these sign boards.

It's about 10am+ on a Saturday morning. A nice and lovely morning!!

go straight and go straight some more and you'll see this.. 7km more!!

It seems like we're in a kampung. see this kampung road!!

another 4 more km..

wah seh, so deep inside one.. never ending kampung road..

Finally, we're here!! Although this is the main entrance, don't rushed in. Turn right to get your tickets first.

The ticket counter. RM 10 per person and RM 8 for kids.

After you get your tickets, don’t parked your car there. Drive in, there’s a big car park inside!!

Let's go!! The guards let us in after making sure we have the tickets.

The map

The big octopus

This is the first thing we saw. There were already a lot of kids enjoying themselves there at the pool. The water is cold here, not hot!! Water here is not very deep, suitable for little kids. Beside the octopus, there’s this..

The fake waterfall! The water is deeper here..

This one very nice ler, if you stand below the waterfall, it’s like massaging your back!! So strong and powerful, a very good massage if you have a stiff neck!!

Nice right?

We headed to the hot spring pool after taking a few pictures with this giant octopus!! The hot spring is at the other side.

the water in this pool is a little bit warm. water not too deep as well.

We were not allowed in this pool. Not sure why, it's 40-43 celcius. If you wanna see you are healthy or not, try to walk on these little stones, if you if you don't feel pain, that means you're very healthy!! I feel pain ler.. **sob **sob

The egg boiling place. Let's boil egg!!

don't play play wor..see the water boiling?

you want half boil or full boil?

we brought 20++ eggs but we only boil 10++ lar, each person one enuf lor..boil boil boil..Althought it says 6-7 minuets but since we're boiling so many eggs, we waited for another 3 minutes, a total of 10 minutes!

dun play play, got soya sauce some more.. wuahahahaha..

sorry lar, i know very ugly, very hot mar..

yummy!

Besides the egg boiling pool, there’s another pool beside for people to boil their legs. hehe.. not boil lar, for you to ‘zham’ your leg. Heard ppl said it’s very good if you got rough skin wor.. not sure lar..

this pool is very hot!

how hot? 42 - 50 celcius!!

This pool is too hot for me, i only can touch a bit but not able to soak my whole leg in.. but some ppl can tahan ler..the auntie beside me soak for more than half an hour!! damn geng!! see her leg? two colors already!!

see her leg or not? half red already.. that's how hot the water.. i also dare not put my feet in.. damn geng lar, this auntie..

After enjoying ourselves at the hot spring, we went back to the giant octopus pool to play water. We spent about 4 hours at the hot spring and left about 3pm. Food were not allowed cos there’s a cafeteria there but we did not eat there lar (except the egg). After shower, we headed to the Sungkai town to try their famous ‘chu sao’ (pig hand or leg?? (猪手)) at the Choy Kee Restaurant (财记饭店).

Did I have fun? Oh well, ok lar, not bad lar, I think kids will enjoy more!! If you have kids, bring them here lar, they’ll love it!!
