6. Be One Of The Firsts To Visit Genting Skyworlds
After multiple opening delays, the highly-anticipated Genting Skyworlds outdoor theme park is finally going to open its doors on 8 February, just in time for Chinese New Year! Fancy being one of the first people to explore this long-awaited wonderland? Even if you don't enter the theme park, you can head to the Central Park area of Genting Skyworlds to take some lovely photos in the cool breeze - our favourite setup here is definitely the breathtaking 7-metre tall golden tree!
7. Catch live performances throughout CNY
Resorts World Genting has put together an exciting lineup of live performances throughout the festive period to keep all guests well entertained.

Set on a plot of rocky forested land and surrounded by nature, the Chin Swee Caves Temple is an iconic attraction in Genting Highlands. If you're taking the Awana Skyway Cable Car up, disembark midway at the Chin Swee Station to pop by for a visit! The temple houses several prayer halls, a nine-storey Pagoda (guests can climb to the top for a bird's eye view of the surrounding landscape), as well as huge statues of Buddha and Kuan Yin. Simply bask in the serene atmosphere by taking a tranquil stroll in the temple grounds before heading to the top.
