Travelogue - Bukit Tinggi - Japanese Garden

I'm finally blogging on my Bukit Tinggi trip that happened last August. Went up to the Japanese Garden. Erm, before reaching the top, you actually have to walk quite a distance. So to those who're planning to visit the Japanese Garden, be sure that you're wearing sport shoes or sneakers. No flats or heels plss. Your feet will be majorly damage if you're walking up with heels or flats! ;)


''Step through a rustic gateway and a winding Japanese footpath leads you through a beautiful garden to a waterfall, over a bridge spanning a koi pond and up to a Japanese tea house. Every detail you see captures the spirit of Japanese craftsmanship at its most authentic. Located 3,500 feet above the sea, the Japanese village is the first of its kind outside Japan. The garden was planned and designed by renowned Japanese architect, Mr. Kaio Ariizumi and built by a team of 22 skilled craftsmen from Japan.'' - Source


The pathway to heaven. LOL!

Souvenir shop.


Very common koi fish flags, erm they're kites actually. 






Here, you get to wear Japan's traditional suit, the kimono. It's really pretty, but the price to wear it for a photograph is even prettier :p 




Japanese Tea House & Garden.



The tea house.






The Tatami Spa entrance.




Unfortunately, it was closed when we were there, so no chance to try it out! Perhaps you guys can go try it and tell me bout it! ;)




Ryo Zan Tei Japanese Restaurant. 


I snapped the menu for you guys, so you can actually know the prices before entering. :D

Why does everything seems to be prettier at night? Lol.














When the dark night rises. HAHA




That's the end of my adventure at the French themed village.

Stepping into the French themed village is like living in the fairytale, like a princess living in a France castle. It's really pretty in there. It's really breathtaking inside. I suddenly feel like a French when I was there. HAHA *sorry for the sarcasm* 

But anyway, you guys should really go visit Bukit Tinggi once in a lifetime, tho I might not wanna go back. The journey is too long, plus the food in there is seriously not worth it, honestly. And I'm really sorry for the lack of updates. Yours truly is being really lazy recently. Plus, December is really busy, it doesn't seems like I'm on a school holiday. Hah!

So I'm ending this here. Till my next post, x
