 Located
about 110km from Kuala Lumpur and 265km from
Kuantan, Raub is both a town and a district. It is
one of the oldest towns in Pahang.
Raub, which literally means 'scoop' in Malay is a
historic gold mining settlement. The place had
seen glory during the 19th century. Traces of the
old gold mine a little out of town at Bukit Koman
(Command Hill) are still evident.
Raub is an ideal base to explore this part of
Pahang state. Locals will be quick to recommend
the Government Rest House, which is located on a
hill right in the town itself.
Elsewhere, there are a few basic hotels and one
strategically located country adventure resort
located halfway between Raub and Kuala Lipis.
