Pahang is the largest state in Peninsular Malaysia and is situated in the eastern coastal region. The state's 35,964 sq. km encompasses a remarkable range of Malaysia's many different environments, from the majestic peaks and cool hill regions of the state's western region to the miles of soft sand beach along the South China Sea. Pahang's nearly one million people constitute a representative mix of Malaysia's three main ethnic communities - Malay, Chinese and Indian.
	While the capital of Pahang is of less historical interest than many of Malaysia's state capitals, Kuantan is the entry point for many of Pahang's peerless beach resorts. Located near the midway point of the east coast, Kuantan is a bustling town and a major stopover for travelers heading north, south or across the peninsula.
Outside of Kuantan in the town of Panching, 25km north-west, is the Gua Charah (Charah Cave), which contains a statue of the Sleeping Buddha carved out of the rocks. When the sun is at a certain angle in July, light penetrates the cave and the reclining Buddha's head is lit up. It is a steep climb up an external stairway to the cave entrance.

Tea and strawberries are also grown on the terraced slopes of the Cameron Highlands, and the area possesses notable rose gardens as well.
	Fraser's Hill nestles quietly at 1,524 meters above sea level, slightly to the north of the Genting Highlands and also in Pahang. The beauty of Fraser's Hill is based primarily on its cool mountain air, its abundance of luxuriant vegetation, and its peace and tranquility.There are jungle trails, waterfalls, and flower nurseries, a very pleasant 9-hole golf course, and a riding stable. Other facilities include a children's playground and a roller skating rink.
Bukit Larut, located just ten kilometers from quiet Taiping in Perak, is Malaysia's oldest hill station.

However, it preserves much more of the atmosphere of a colonial hill station, with modest, welcoming bungalows, carefully cultivated gardens, and a pervasive atmosphere of cool quietude.
