Genting Highlands, dubbed the City of Entertainment, has long been a playground for residents of Kuala Lumpur and the surrounding areas. Some people go there daily to try their luck, the place being just an hour's drive from Kuala Lumpur.
Gentings (as its normally referred to) is most well-known for its casino, the only legal land-based casino in the whole of Malaysia. Unfortunately, many people have the misconception that there is only the casino up there. In fact, the integrated resort offers theme parks, hotels and extensive shopping and it encompasses six hotels with 10,000 rooms. The First World Hotel has a total of 6,118 rooms, making it the current largest hotel in the world. Gentings attracts some 15 million visitors annually with Singaporeans making up a sizeable number.
Many Malaysians have yet to visit Gentings, especially East Malaysians but very soon it will be convenient for a visit from Sabah and Sarawak when Gentings and AirAsia collaborate on holiday packages specially drawn up for East Malaysians.
