It takes around 2 n half hours, drive all way from BW to CH, follow the Simpang Pulai highway.
Siao Yan is CH local ppl, so she know where is the real place that worth to visit.
Show you some hints........
Cactus....hehe....Yeah, it is Cactus Valley....Entrance fee for tourist RM4, CH local ppl is FREE
It is worth to visit this place because there is not just Cactus Valley to visit, but also can visit few farms around near CV, it is FREE...such as....
Organic Vege Farm
Vege is ready for sale, you can pick the fresh vege from here..

This organice vege farm is not very big, but is kind of good experience too. Note: After you visits here, you wont buy ORGANICE VEGE anymore!!
The CV ofcourse is not just to see cactus. Siao Yan, as our tour guide, bring us walk around from 1 level to another level.. if without her guide, i think we will get lost or missed some of the special plants. ..It is really big place....

After few hours here, SY intro us to another place. Rose garden at near "top of mountain"..( meaning is very far from town)
This place is only known by local ppl. Is a private rose garden, but still open for public to visit... Note that you must have a very very very good driving skills as the road to get in there is just very tiny small and only have 1 lane, best fit for Kancil or Myvi small size car go in...or bicycle better
But that time is not a good time to see roses...not so many roses around, but have a very good view to see Boh Tea garden
Some weird flower but nice looking...
This is Raspberry :)
Passion Fruit
Big size orchid, almost same size like my palm

Note: Boh Tea Garden is the biggest tea garden in CH. You will see some small tea garden named as Cameron Valley, don't be fooled by this tea garden, it is strongly not recommended to visit this place! (Although it is FREE) Don't even try their tea, it taste just like very cheap chinese tea, blekkk....somemore it cost very expensive too. For a small tea pot of tea cost RM14 (no tea leaf inside, no refill too! Yea, the tea pot capacity is enough for 4 small cups of tea, if you want to drink more, buy another pot!) And also don't buy this brand name tea or products because it is not real tea from CH la, fake one!!...
It is not easy to go there, because without an expert driving skills, you will not dare to go in there by drive on your own, else you will cause lots of trouble or make the whole road traffic jam. The road to get in this tea farm is not that wide enough, only have 1 lane. So, traffic jam along the way to get in here is very common. But unfortunately, the weather is not good enough, it keep raining. Even we have arrived the parking place, but still not able to walk inside the shop and cafe because it keeps raining....:( Only can take some photos from far view....
To purchase the genuine Boh Tea products, it is recommended to purchase it here because they have variety of choices, some flavor is not for sale outside , or even at CH souvenier shop. And don't buy those chap pa lang brand tea, only the packing is attractive, but is not worth to buy it from CH. I think those chap pa lang brand available for sale at Tesco or Giant supermarket too.
By the way, it has a big souvenir shop named Green View Garden before we go in Brinchang (Located beside the road side, the second big shop, you can see it when you first coming in CH). They'r selling most of their own products and has a cafe inside, ofcourse can hand pick your own straberry 1kg cost RM40 if not mistaken..
Taste not so nice and not cheap too...

Taste not so nice and not cheap too...Actually did not try anything inside, because i know that strawberry from CH is NOT SWEET taste one. So we give up try any of the food here....Yan take us to another bakery shop which only known by their local ppl. Forgot the shop name, but they supply almost whole CH cafe cakes and other bakery stuffs.
Marble cheese cake, blueberry cheese tart and strawberry blueberry tart...
By the way, we also visits Yan herself has a floral garden too, really big garden. It have many kind of plants too.
This is super big size lemon. Around 5-7cm
Strawberry chili
Buddha Palm :P

Yuen Shya & her hubby, yan, and 4 of us yum cha together
Marble cheese cake, blueberry cheese tart and strawberry blueberry tart...That day is sunday, so only have carrot cheese cake and few item above for sale. Not everyday have same flavor cake for sale, because they supply the cake or bread based on their MOOD. But the taste is really super yummy...especially the marble cheese cake..taste better than Secret Recipe's or Eden. The bottom part of marble cheese cake is like coffee flavor, but mixed with dark chocolate and some chocolate chips on top...dunno how to say it. I m big fan of bakery stuffs, especially cakes!..The blueberry cheese tart is last 2 only, no more left, it taste super yummy too. But Yan said the best selling cake is Chocolate Cake...ahh, no chance to try it because still not yet ready when we arrived :(...

Cherry tomatoes??...ofcourse not, i can buy it here at our morning market...
Sweet corn?? Note to all visitor that dont simply buy the sweet corn la, cuz mostly is from other places, and they said is from CH, top up the price already..better dont buy any lo...

The pure blueberry jam & Strawberry White Coffee....I know that blueberry jam is not from CH too, but this one is more pure blueberry jam, have a lots of blueberry inside, not just jam...:P
and the Strawberry White Coffee. Never try before, so buy a pack to try it out...It taste so special, not too heavy strawberry smell. But not cheap, this box cost me RM15, the jam is RM7.90 price still acceptable..Already finished half bottle :P
But if you still insist to buy strawberry, fresh vege, flowers, fruit, or sweet corn. You can visit the pasar near the road side. A little far away from town, but there sell things more cheaper. Honestly say, it is mostly organised by Chinese ppl. You can buy strawberry at lelong price too. DONT buy anything at the pasar malam in town, that one is chop head pasar malam.
Lastly, thanks to Yan let us stay at her home overnight, so that we can save the accomodation expenses. and also treat us homemade steamboat, bring us to eat at the place that suit our taste buds to avoid chop head by those restaurants, and also be our tour guide to bring us visit some places that we never know too.
Note: I m going to Hatyai for Songkran celebration on this April 11, although is not the exact date, ( exact date is on 13th April) but heard they said is very fun and ppl there already start celebrating this festival until it ends, so excited!! But i lost my boarder pass la (We no need to take passport to go Hatyai). But give up searching for my boarder pass, instead of pay RM10 to redo my boarder pass, i still decided to use my passport. And also have another trip to Bangkok again same on both end of April and end of August....Opps.......almost forgot that i have a trip to Bali on mid of august and HK on Sept.I almost book the same date to HK & Bangkok, lucky i double check the date before i book the ticket. Wohoo...Ahh, life is beautiful :)
