Brinchang
The highlands' second-largest town, with Chinese signs everywhere, and a base for lodging and food near the mossy forest and strawberry farms.
About 5 km north of Tanah Rata and sitting slightly higher, Brinchang is home mostly to Chinese residents. Around its central square you'll find hotels, tea restaurants and steamboat (hot pot) eateries, with prices slightly lower than in Tanah Rata. It is the nearest base for Gunung Brinchang, the Mossy Forest, the BOH Sungai Palas Tea Estate and the strawberry farms. Golden Hills hosts a night market on Friday and Saturday evenings. The central market in town is a good place to buy souvenirs.
