The integrated hill resort represents a popular weekend getaway from the city heat, connected by major highways, trunk roads and cable cars service from Gohtong Jaya and is accessible by car within an hour drive from Kuala Lumpur (about 35 km), or accessible by two different cable cars, Genting Skyway which at its opening was the world's fastest and South East Asia's longest gondola lift, and the newer Awana Skyway. HistoryThe idea of a hill resort located near Kuala Lumpur occurred to Tan Sri Lim Goh Tong during a business trip to the Cameron Highlands in 1964. He mooted this idea while enjoying the fresh and crisp air from the balcony of his hotel room. A private company called Genting Highlands Berhad was set up on 27 April 1965, with the late Tan Sri Haji Mohammed Noah bin Omar, Tan Sri Lim successfully obtained approval for the alienation of {{convert|12,000|acre}} and {{convert|2,800|acre}} of land from the Pahang and Selangor State Government respectively between the years 1965 and 1970. An anomaly happened during the obtaining of the land approvals. While the Pahang state government swiftly approved a freehold lease, the Selangor state reluctantly approved a 99-year lease. As a result, Tan Sri Lim Goh Tong met the then Menteri Besar of Selangor, Dato Harun Idris and told him that a freehold lease would be more feasible than a 99-year lease. Finally, the Selangor state government agreed to grant a freehold lease. On 18 August 1965, a technical and construction team began the four-year task to complete the access road from Genting Sempah to the peak of Gunung Ulu Kali. On 31 March 1969, the late YTM Tunku Abdul Rahman, Malaysia's first prime minister, laid the foundation stone for the company's pioneer hotel, marking the completion of the access road to Genting Highlands Resort. The Prime Minister was impressed that the private sector, without the assistance of the Government, could develop a mountain resort for the enjoyment of all Malaysians{{Citation needed|date=August 2011}}; subsequently a gaming licence was suggested to help accelerate the development of this remote area. In 1971, the first hotel at Genting Highlands was successfully completed and was named Highlands Hotel (now renamed as Theme Park Hotel). The Genting Highlands Resort continued to expand since the opening of the first hotel in 1971. Development of the area continued with care taken to ensure the maintenance of the natural beauty of the rainforest of the region.{{Citation needed|date=August 2011}} In 1997, Genting Highlands Resort added the Genting Skyway cable car system that provides a {{convert|3.38|km}} transport to the hilltop. Genting Skyway is also recognised as the "World's Fastest Mono Cable Car System" with a maximum speed of {{convert|21.6|km/h}} and the "Longest Cable Car in Malaysia and probably in Southeast Asia".{{Citation needed|date=August 2011}} In 2013, Genting Malaysia embarked on a master plan to reinvigorate and transform RWG under the Genting Integrated Tourism Plan (GITP). Genting Integrated Tourism Plan is a 10-year master plan for development, expansion, enhancement and refurbishment of hotels, theme parks and infrastructure at Resorts World Genting. The plan with different phases involves a new 1,300 rooms hotel expansion to the current First World Hotel, a new 10,000 seats arena and reconverting the Genting Outdoor Theme Park to 20th Century Fox World.[1] ClimateGenting Highlands has a spring-like climate, with yearly temperatures no higher than {{convert|25|°C}} and rarely falling below {{convert|14|°C}} yearly. The lowest temperature of Genting Highlands is {{convert|8.4|°C}}. AccommodationResorts World Genting has 6 hotels and a leisure resort. One of the seven accommodations, the First World Hotel, holds the Guinness World Record as the largest hotel in the world from 2006 until 2008, and from 2015 onwards with a total of 7,351 rooms. In 2018, Forbes Travel Guide Star Ratings awarded 4-star rating and 'recommended' citation to Genting Grand and Maxims respectively.[2] Crockfords at Resorts World Genting was awarded the prestigious 5-star rating in 2019, making it the first and only hotel in Malaysia to achieve this honor.

AttractionsThe comprehensive indoor and outdoor theme-park was promoted as the destination for "Fun at the Peak". The entire resort was subsequently billed as "The City of Entertainment". Theme parksThe Genting Outdoor Theme Park was open in 1994 and closed on 1 September 2013 to make way for the world's first 20th Century Fox World.[4] On 26 November 2018, it was revealed that Genting Malaysia Berhad had filed a lawsuit against Fox Entertainment Group and The Walt Disney Company for breaching their contract.[5] Currently, the outdoor theme park opening is in various options to be pursued by Genting Malaysia and expected to open in the first quarter of 2019 after completion target was delayed from 2016 to 2018. [6] The First World Plaza was closed from June 2017 to February 2018 for refurbishment. Hence, the indoor theme park, which was located in the plaza, had been closed as well. SnowWorld, Genting Bowl and Video Games Park which are within the plaza have reopened in February 2018. On 8 December 2018, a preview event of the new indoor theme park, called the "Skytropolis Funland" was held. The VOID, a US-based operator of unique fully immersive virtual reality attraction officially opened their first centre in Asia on 6 December 2018. It spans nearly 7000 square feet in the Skytropolis Funland.[7] CasinoResorts World Genting is the only legal land-based casino in the country. There are two main casino outlets in the resort which are Genting Casino and SkyCasino. Nightlife

AccessCarCompared to Cameron Highlands and Fraser's Hill, Genting Highlands is much easier to access from highly urbanised areas (i.e. Kuala Lumpur or even Kuantan), and is the only hill resort that is accessible by a modern tolled expressway, the East Coast Expressway (LPT) {{MES-E|8}}. Exit 803 to Genting Highlands is located at Genting Sempah at the Pahang-Selangor border just before the Genting Sempah tunnel. An 18-km mountain road will then connect the exit to the peak. For a toll-free alternative, there is the old Gombak-Bentong road {{JKR|68}} that passes through Genting Sempah mountain pass. Alternately, there is another route, the Jalan Batang Kali-Genting Highlands which begins in Batang Kali in Hulu Selangor. This allows motorists from Perak, Penang or even Kedah to reach Genting Highlands without going through either downtown Kuala Lumpur or the LPT. Public transportAs with most of western Pahang, Genting Highlands is not served by any rail line, given its mountainous terrain; the closest three stations arguably are {{RapidKL Rail code|KJ|1}} Gombak on the Kelana Jaya Line, Mentakab on the KTM Intercity Eastern Sector and {{KLRT color code|KA|12}} Batang Kali on the KTM Komuter. Nevertheless, Resorts World Genting provides hourly shuttle buses from the Gombak LRT station, as well as {{KLRT color code|SP|8}}{{KLRT color code|AG|8}}{{KLRT color code|SBK|17}} Pudu Sentral, {{KLRT color code|KJ|15}}{{KLRT color code|SBK|15}}{{KLRT color code|KA|01}}{{KLRT color code|MR|1}} KL Sentral and {{KLRT color code|SBK|9}} Bandar Utama to Genting Highlands. PoliticsGenting Highlands is part of the Bentong parliamentary constituency, currently represented by environmental activist Wong Tack on a DAP ticket. On the state level, Genting Highlands falls under the Ketari constituency of the Pahang State Legislative Assembly, currently held by Young Syefura Othman of the DAP.
