Kuala Lumpur is known as a metropolitan city that is all about business and nothing more, but here is a list of must-visit places in Kuala Lumpur that can discredit this myth.
Most of the 5 Star hotels in Kuala Lumpur are located around the famous Twin Towers. You can see the buildings lit up glistening at night from most of the hotels located around the Petronas tower. The best time to visit the towers is around 6 pm when you can see the towers during daylight and also witness it once it has been lit up. Berjaya Times Square is located in the vicinity of the towers.
Menara KL Tower was surpassed by the Petronas Twin Towers but still remains one of the most important architectural structures.
The Batu caves are definitely one of the most sought after attractions in Kuala Lumpur. It is a 400 million-year-old limestone hill with a temple that is known to be about 100 years old. This is the main focal point when it comes to the Hindu ceremonies and celebrations that take place.
If you love shopping, eating and exploring, then China Town is the place to go to where you can spend hours and hours exploring while trying out different food and crafts. There are so many different shops for you to visit and browse through a variety of products that are absolutely beautiful.
The architecture and the grandeur of the building are absolutely breathtaking that you would want to keep roaming around looking at all the intricate detailing while admiring the amount of patience, energy and time that would have gone into the creation.
The Sunway Lagoon Theme Park is a must-visit location for children and adults alike. The water rides, the man-made beach and the numerous activities are perfect for an outing with the family.
Jalan Alor is the ideal location to go to in order to experience the culture in Kuala Lumpur where you get to dine and walk while doing some shopping.
One of the most exotic attractions in Kuala Lumpur is the Aquaria KLCC which is located in the bottom-most level of the KL Convention Centre. The 464,515sqm Aquaria is home to more than 150 different species of marine animals. Even though some consider this to be an unrealistic set up that was made to attract tourists, the experience is truly amazing.
The central market is where you go to look for arts and crafts and all things artistic. The artistic community roams around there and you can go shop for some interesting handmade products that are perfect for souvenirs or gifts.
The Perdana Botanical Gardens is home to the biggest number of animal parks and flower gardens in Kuala Lumpur city centre. This used to be called lake Gardens and one of the main features of this is the Orchid Garden as there are more than 800 species of Orchids there.
