Timeline

  1. 08:00

    Tan Sri (Dr) Lim Goh Tong Memorial Hall

    Walk into the Tan Sri (Dr) Lim Goh Tong Memorial Hall as it opens. The wooden effigy and orchid display are most striking in the soft morning light before the midday heat sets in. Take a moment to read the mural of Resorts World Genting in the background to understand the scale of what was built here.

  2. 08:15

    AYU Awana

    Head to AYU Awana for a coffee or light breakfast. This poolside lounge is open from 07:00, so you will catch it early and avoid the lunch rush. The smokehouse and grill menu offers a relaxed start to the day with views of the greenery.

  3. 08:45

    Edibee

    Stroll over to Edibee to browse their sweet shop. Located near the landmark, it is a perfect quick stop to see local confectionery and pick up a small treat to carry with you. The shop is open from 08:00, fitting seamlessly into this morning schedule.

    Awana Bio Park

    End your morning at Awana Bio Park. The 800-meter conservation trail is an easy walk through the virgin jungle. It is the closest natural attraction to the memorial (21 minutes walk) and offers a peaceful contrast to the commercial areas. The trail is clearly marked and suitable for a relaxed pace.
