A brief introduction to Kuala Lumpur
An unforgettable travel experience, Kuala Lumpur is home to towering skyscrapers, endless shopping experiences, a diverse dining scene, and pan-regional cultural heritage.
Start your trip by heading to the top of the world’s tallest twin structure – the stunning Petronas Twin Towers. Here, you will see unparalleled views across Kuala Lumpur’s cityscape, as well as other iconic buildings such as Menara KL Tower, Merdeka Square and the National Mosque.
At sunset, the streets of Kuala Lumpur come alive with a bounty of shopping and dining opportunities. For local souvenir shopping, head to Chinatown, located on the bustling Petaling Street. Kuala Lumour is also well-known for its high-end retail shopping, especially in Bukit Bintang, where you can find premium designer brands, and fine dining restaurants.
For a taste of authentic Malaysian cuisine, a trip to Jalan Alor is a must. This famous food-street is packed to bursting with hawkers serving up some of the city’s most celebrated dishes. Be sure to sample local favourites such as “nasi lemak” (a creamy coconut rice dish served with sambal) and “char kway teow” (a Chinese-inspired rice noodle dish).
