Introduction
Fraser's Hill is perhaps the prettiest hill resort in Malaysia. It nestles at 1,524 metres above sea level in the state of Pahang, a one and a half hour drive from Kuala Lumpur This charming little resort with a population of approximately 1,000 residents, is not unlike a quiet Scottish village. Granite-coloured mock Tudor cottages sit amidst the briliant coloured blooms of an English-style country garden. Some of these bungalows are private residences but some have been converted into holiday bungalows. They enable visitors to enjoy a country-style holiday in a cool, refreshing ambience where evenings bring on swirling mists descending upon the little village and cold winds howling through lofty pine trees.

History
Fraser's Hill takes its name after a Scottish trader Louis James Fraser who set up a tin-ore trading station in the forested mountain between the Selangor-Pahang border during the end of the 19th century.Using a mule train to ascend the hill, Fraser traded in tin-ore until the fateful day when he disappeared in the forested hills. The bishop of Malaya at that time! Ferguson - Davis, mounted a search for Fraser. The search failed to find him but the potential of the hills as a cool getaway was uncovered. The hills were surveyed and in 1919 developed into a hill resort named after the missing Scotsman.
