Awana SkyWay (Formerly known as Genting Highlands Premium Outlets Cable Car)
No. 8 of Best Things to Do in Malaysia

Awana SkyWay (Formerly known as Genting Highlands Premium Outlets Cable Car)

4.7/5
2k reviews
Awana SkyWay (Formerly known as Genting Highlands Premium Outlets Cable Car) is the main aerial route to and from the mountaintop resort area in Genting Highlands, Malaysia. Departing from Awana Central Station on the mountainside, it takes approximately 10 minutes to reach Genting Highlands Station at the summit, climbing over 600 m during the journey. The cable car spans the entire valley, offering views of the pristine tropical rainforest below, said to be over 100 million years old. As the cabins ascend slowly along the mountain ridge, mist often drifts through the sea of trees. On clear days, you can see the layered mountain ranges in the distance, and the temperature at the summit is noticeably cooler than at the base. The cabins come in two types: standard cabins, which are shared with other travelers and have higher capacity, and glass-bottom cabins. Among the over 100 cabins in operation, only about 10 feature transparent floors, allowing direct views of the rainforest and deep valleys below. Those seeking this "floating" experience should plan ahead. The route also includes a stop at Chin Swee Temple Station, where travelers can disembark with the same ticket to visit the hillside Chin Swee Temple and Ten Thousand Buddhas Pagoda before reboarding to continue the uphill ride—a highlight many travelers miss. The summit station connects directly to the SkyAvenue mall, with attractions like Genting SkyWorlds Theme Park just steps away. Mountain weather is unpredictable, so for clearer views of the expansive landscape, mornings are usually the best time to ride. • Take the Awana SkyWay (Formerly known as Genting Highlands Premium Outlets Cable Car) to enjoy the picturesque view of Genting Highlands and the breathtaking 360° panorama. • Overlook the 130-million-year-old tropical rainforest. • Feel the cool mountain air and enjoy an experience like flying high in the sky. △ Admire the 130-million-year-old tropical rainforest below, with breathtaking views in sight. △ Enjoy an extraordinary journey in the sky.Malaysia · Genting Highlands

The island is so picturesque with its stunning beach, lush jungle and clear waters – it’s worth taking the time to hike up to the hilltop view to witness the amazing views over the South China Sea. Since the island is tiny, you can get everywhere on foot and really two nights is more than enough time to explore it all. Our kids had great fun zipping down the big orange slide and the smaller blue one, splashing into the sea and playing on the beach.

With its pristine beaches and turquoise waters, Pulau Besar is the perfect place for both relaxation and exploration. Walking on the soft sand and feeling the ocean breeze is a truly delightful experience. Snorkeling offers a glimpse of vibrant underwater life, with schools of colorful fish swimming among the corals. Scuba diving is a truly captivating experience, allowing you to experience the ocean's majesty and mystery up close. This is a perfect paradise for sun and sea lovers.

Visiting the Petronas Towers requires advance booking. You'll queue on the first floor to take the elevator together, but it's not crowded and the experience is quite pleasant. You can reach two floors: first, the area connecting the two towers on the 40+ floor, where staff will leave at a set time; then, take the elevator directly to the 86th floor.

Went there on a Saturday night. It was quite packed and busy, and the traffic was pretty bad, so the journey took about 2 hours and 31 minutes instead of the expected 2 hours. Despite the delay, we really enjoyed the bus trip. It was a relaxing way to explore Kuala Lumpur and take in the surrounding sights along the way. Overall, a pleasant experience, especially for enjoying the city views.
