There’s a place called The Acacia Retreat, a resort in Bentong on the edge of the Krua Wildlife Reserve in Malaysia, some 46 km from Kuala Lumpur. It’s a part of the world that encourages you to get back to basics; as children and adults alike spend lesser hours outdoors preferring to be huddled with their hi-tech gadgets and computers, we reverse this on a 360-degree scale. Outdoor recreation promotes wholesome physical development. Explore the acres of green environment, develop your muscle strength and coordination and gain self-confidence – that’s the miracle of being nature’s best buddy. Here, find all of your favourite pastimes of the bygone era resurrected to life – games and sports inherited and passed down generations of descendants to those of the 21st century. Rise with the sun, frolic with nature and set with the moon.
