  • Upon arrival, step into Colmar Tropicale, a delightful resort village inspired by the town of Colmar in France’s Alsace region. The cobblestone walkways, timber-framed buildings, and floral balconies create a storybook atmosphere. Stroll around the quaint streets, capture beautiful photos, and enjoy lunch at one of the cafes or restaurants (own expense).
  • Next, venture further up the hill to the Japanese Village, a peaceful retreat surrounded by dense rainforest. Here, you can stroll through the beautifully landscaped gardens, cross traditional wooden bridges, and visit a charming teahouse for a glimpse into Japanese culture. The nearby Botanical Garden offers a relaxing nature walk filled with exotic plants and vibrant flowers — perfect for unwinding in a calm and serene environment.
