This would be interesting to visit Tapah and Bidor in Perak. Usually I do visit Bidor town as it is very near after exiting the Bidor toll (about 5 minutes drive away) and would head to Pun Chun Restaurant for Wantan noodle or their famous duck beehoon soup noodle before heading out to Cameron Highlands.
As for Tapah, well, I confess I have not really explored the town as most times I would just head on strait up to Cameron Highlands because the road to the highlands just bypass the town. But you could actually just pop in to Tapah as it was not very far from the Tapah toll.
This news is not detailed enough for an informed trip to Tapah so will dig around for more to be posted up next time.
Cleaner Tapah and Bidor by end of March 2012

WORK to spruce up the Batang Padang district is underway and visitors can expect to see a cleaner Tapah and Bidor by the end of March.
Tapah District Council president Razali Bakar said operation units had been assigned to pick up garbage at both towns on a frequent basis as part of the Moh Singgah Tapah programme.
"Although the Lata Kinjang waterfall in Chenderiang does not come under our purview, we will still monitor its cleanliness from time to time," he said.
Razali also advised business operators, especially hotels and restaurants, to keep their premises clean and bright to ensure visitors had a comfortable and enjoyable stay.
Popular sport: A fishing competition to be held at a pond
in Kampung Tersusun Muhibbah Batu 33, Temoh is one of the
events in the Moh Singgah Tapah programme.
The programme, aimed at promoting Visit Perak Year 2012, would be held from March 23 to 25.
"There will be cultural performances like silat and traditional dances.
"We have also laid out several competitions featuring traditional games," said Razali.
He added that a fishing competition would also be held at the Kampung Tersusun Muhibbah Batu 33 pond in Temoh.
"We hope to attract at least 10,000 domestic and foreign tourists to the three-day event," he said.
"Most tourists usually stop by briefly for meals in Tapah before heading up to Cameron Highlands.
"But by doing so, they don’t get to discover other attractions in Tapah.
"This programme encourages visitors to stay in Tapah and to take time to explore the many sites and experiences we have to offer," he said. -- The Star Metro
