Kuala Lumpur is a delightful cosmopolitan city to visit as it is much more than a business city that has developed over the past few years.
The twin towers in Kuala Lumpur were once the tallest buildings in the world. They are a symbolic representation of Kuala Lumpur and the developing metropolitan city is becoming by the day. You can visit the towers and enjoy time there and once you get back to the deluxe hotel rooms in KL you will be able to witness the tower from afar.
Being a city filled with diverse ethnicities and cultures the Sri Mahamariamman temple is a great place to visit to get an idea of the different cultures and practices. This kovil is known as one of the oldest Hindu temples in Kuala Lumpur.
Trying out the local food is an important part of travelling. You get to treat your taste buds to some of the favourite food of the locals which you might find absolutely delightful.
Take a break from the city and head to the bird park where you can see some endangered and colourful birds roaming around freely.
If you love history, culture, traditions and learning about different countries the museum of that country is the ideal place to start from. The National Museum is able to provide a lot of information about Malaysia and its history.
Opened since 1997, the Sunway Lagoon Theme Park is a location that children and adults can both enjoy. There are three different sections built into one park consisting of land rides, a water world and an extreme wild-life park.
Walking along the 300-foot tunnel at the Kuala Lumpur Convention Centre Aquaria KLCC is as close as you can get to walking underwater to be with the fish and marine life. You get to see the staff dive in to feed the animals and check on their health and well-being. Berjaya Times Square Hotel is located in the vicinity making this a must-do activity for those staying at the hotel.
If you do not shop at the Central Market when you visit Kuala Lumpur you haven’t experienced the city to its best. You find a range of vendors selling clothes, accessories, souvenirs and even locally made gift items
Trying out street food is an absolute must when you are travelling. Like most other South-East Asian countries the street food in Kuala Lumpur is delectable. The best place to try street food in Kuala Lumpur is Hutong, where you get a range of different food both traditional and developed to be fusion cuisine.
If you are scared of height then this excursion is probably not for you. You get to go up to the topmost level of the Kuala Lumpur Tower which is made out of a shock and break-proof glass. The tower is 335 metres tall and you get to have a bird’s eye view of the city from the top of the building.
