Malaysia: Untouched By Time Land

Malaysia: Untouched By Time Land
 In Southeast Asia you’ll find a gem of a country that seems untouched by time. Travelling to Malaysia would be like being transported by a time travelling machine back to a time when life was simpler, and commercialization has not yet touched the perfect, unadulterated beauty of nature. This is what you can find on a trip to Malaysia, and if you plan it well, it can very much turn out to be the trip of a lifetime.
Natural Wonders
Malaysia is a land rich in natural wonders – of the quality you wouldn’t see elsewhere in the world. Danum Valley in Sabah brings you to a rainforest that almost seems untouched, and going there will bring you back in time. On the other hand, the Perhentian islands in the Northeast coast will give you waters so clear you wouldn’t believe your eyes. Another isolated but beautiful island is Layang-Layang, which has one of the most diverse and amazing marine life you can see. Those who want to go for a relaxing swim surrounded by nothing but nature will enjoy this isolated paradise as much as the diverse who will surely find its marine life unforgettable. If you’re of the mountain-climbing, backpacking kind, you can climb the majestic Mt. Kinabalu and reach peaks you could only dream of before.
A Cultural Experience
Aside from experiencing the natural wonders that Malaysia has to offer, another thing that could make your trip truly one of a kind is if you really immerse yourself in the culture of the people. You can witness more than a million devotees flock to Batu Caves, Selangor during the Thaipusam Festival. You can also head to the foot of Mt. Santubong and visit a living museum that will allow you to experience the rich culture and heritage of Sarawak. It will bring you back to the way of life of Malaysia’s ethnic communities – complete with their handicrafts, customs and practices, musical inclinations, and traditions.
