King’s Park Genting Highlands unveils a grand vision

The soft opening of King’s Park Genting Highlands was a resounding success as hundreds of VIP guests attended the exclusive event.

With its strategic location in the central area of Genting Highlands, King’s Park is set to capitalise on the region’s growing investment and development opportunities.

The project, valued at RM10 billion, aims to create an integrated entertainment hub that will cater to the increasing number of visitors to Genting Highlands.

King’s Park: A cinematic retail experience and unique charm

King’s Park Genting Highlands, developed in collaboration with Yuk Tung Group and APHEM, spans over 61 hectares of freehold land. The project features an integrated entertainment hub with a mix of commercial and recreational offerings.

The first phase of development focuses on providing a cinematic retail experience for guests. The commercial centre boasts a 2,000-meter stretch of cutting-edge pedestrian street shops, comprising 360 shops in 12 blocks.

Each retail block unit is meticulously designed based on colonial and vintage architecture, offering a unique sense of charm. The ground floor units feature high ceilings, some measuring 6.5 meters, with the option to include a mezzanine floor.

The shops also highlight alfresco terraces and duo entrances to ensure a seamless flow and easy access for visitors. King’s Park stands out among retail shops in Genting Highlands due to its integration of internationally acclaimed brands and introduction of new experiences not yet available in Malaysia.

Truly Asia cultural streets and Halal-friendly options

A remarkable feature of King’s Park is the ‘Truly Asia Cultural Streets,’ covering approximately 18,680 square meters.

These streets allow patrons to immerse themselves in the metropolitan charms of iconic Asian destinations such as Seoul’s Myeongdong, Osaka’s Ebisubashi-Suji, and Bangkok’s Khao San Road. Neon lights and captivating signages create an exciting aesthetic, capturing the spirit of Asia and showcasing its diversity and energy.

Recognizing the significance of the Muslim community in Malaysia, King’s Park plans to include an international retail halal hub and a halal luxury boutique hotel. This initiative aims to attract both local and overseas Muslim tourists, offering diverse halal-friendly travel and dining options.

The project aligns with the growing market demand for inclusive and halal experiences. Moreover, King’s Park will feature various five-star hotels, including the prestigious Swissôtel Genting Highlands, scheduled to open in 2028.

King’s Park Genting Highlands is set to redefine the entertainment scene in the region. With its integrated entertainment hub concept, the project aims to offer a wide range of attractions, outdoor activities, and cultural experiences.

Scheduled to open in 2026, the commercial and retail shops of King’s Park will complement neighboring luxury residential developments, the Awana Golf Resort, and the Genting Highlands Premium Outlets.

Visitors to King’s Park will enjoy the cool climate of Genting Highlands, with temperatures ranging from 15 to 25 degrees Celsius throughout the year. Surrounded by a 130-million-year-old jungle abundant with flora, fauna, waterfalls, and fresh air, the development offers a unique and refreshing experience for guests.
