A trip to Cameron Highlands would be incomplete without a visit to the tea plantation. Cameron Highlands is fondly known as the "Giant Green" carpet of Malaysia. The tea plantations is one of the key attraction of the highland.
The 3 tea plantations are as follow:
Boh Tea Centre- Fairlie Tea Garden @ Ringlet
Sungai Palas Tea Plantation- Boh Tea Centre
80 years of Umpph!! Boh Plantations is the largest black tea manufacturer in Malaysia was founded by JA Rusell in 1929. Today Boh Tea Plantation owns four tea garden- Habu, Fairlie Tea Garden & Sungai Palas Tea Garden, Cameron Highland. And another one at Bukit Cheeding, Selangor
Routes uphill are rather narrow. While cornering up hill, do give a honk to alert the oncoming car from the opposite direction.
Sungai Palas Tea Plantation would be the most perfect visit. Perfect view with breathtaking and eye soothing green sceneries. You may want to go for the factory tour provided by Boh Plantation. Too bad.. it's close on Monday. But then again, there is a video room for visitors to watch the videos on tea processing.
Both Fairlie plantation and Sungai Palas plantatian has a tea centre for visitors to enjoy a cup of tea while enjoying cooling breeze and the beautiful piece of green carpet sceneries.
Shouldn't miss the Sungai Palas Tea Centre at all!! It offers spectacular views from a 20 foot overhanging platform.
Ahhh....... how relaxing....

Cameron Bharat Tea Plantation- Cameron Valley Tea Centre @ Tanah Rata
Besides Boh Tea Plantation, Cameron Bharat Plantation is the second largest tea producer in Malaysia. There are two Cameron Valley Tea House between Ringlet and Tanah Rate. Just good enough for one to stop for some stretching after a traveling a long journey uphill. It's an irresistible stopover!! A good stop to refresh yourself and take in the lush view of the tea gardens , relaxingly sipping a cup of freshly brewed tea with a scones or strawberry cheesecake.
Bharat Tea Plantation produces highlands tea- a premium quality black tea as well.
Remember, tea plantations is a MUST VISIT!!
