SO MUCH TO ENJOY AND SEE IN KUALA LUMPUR

by listenandlearn

We wish to introduce to you, Chuck of Virtual Tourist. It was quite fortunate that we met Chuck who was a great tour guide. To start our communication with Chuck he recommended such a great hotel which we shall be atttaching photos and website. It was 3 star hotel although we can consider it to be even nearly a 4 star hotel. As we check in the hotel, the lady at the front desk upgraded us to a better view, larger room plus breakfast was included.Well, allow us to attach photos of Chuck and as the saying goes photos speaks louder than us telling you much more. We were so fortunate that Chuck had dedicated so much time showing us Kuala Lumpur.

Take time to experience the KLIA

by LeoZaza

Luxurious journey through the KLIA. Video set to music capturing the super efficiency of the KLIA, the Kuala Lumpur International Airport in Malaysia - a masterpiece of public infrastructure. Only a first attempt at video production which is offered for your entertainment - works well with the speakers turned on. Consider that as in life what matters is not just the destination but also the machinations of how you arrive at your destination. Please enjoy and comments welcome, of course. Happy travels, Leo Zaza.

Malaka

by bleutess

The whole city looks like a museum... You must visit there. You can try some yummy dishes with Portugal style.Also it's good to take some beautiful pictures. The way go back to the KL city, you can visit Putrajaya where you can see the beautiful mosque.

Batu Cave

by bleutess

You can climb to the cave with many 272 stairs but not bad. There is a big cave on the top and can see also some people who is praying. The way down to the ground, you can see the enterance to get to the Gua Gelap, dark cave where you can exploring more deep inside of the cave after getting some safe training.

Bukit Tinggi

by bleutess

Recommended from a local friend. When we visited there, we didn't expect anything but it was really good to visit there: botanic garden, Japanese and French villages, riding horses, rabbit park, etc. Lots of things to do around the mountain. It was so fun trip!

Tip Photo
KLCC

by bleutess

big twin towers which have a connected bridge. you need to line up early in the morning to go up to the tower bridge. KLCC is also popular for the shopping malls. You can try an original Roti boy, kind of sweet bun made with coffee cream. They have also big park and aquarium. good to have a time a day I think.

Isramic museum

by bleutess

don't remember the address, but easy to get there in KL city. not bad to use a taxi.You can see the isramic culture, paintings, and articles. I was so impressed about the women's story: They looked like more active as much as men even in the war.

Having Famous Chinese Herbal Pork Dishes - Bah Kut Teh, and affordable seafood.Location: KlangIf u are looking for a place to shop, food and relax, sunway pyramid which 20mins from the town will be quite a great choice.Penang and Melacca will be a very places in Malaysia for historical places and foods.If u are going to Penang, dun miss out their fried kuay teow, asam laksa, rojak and other small dishes.While if u in Melacca, try out their local made Chicken Rice ball and Satay Celup will be nice.The best night spot will be in the town, usually foreigners will prefer to the beach club. secondary option will be aloha, and thaiclub which in the the same place as beach club.If you are looking for a jungle tracking, beach or sea, terengganu cherating is ur place to be.In Malaysia, we have some island best for scuba diver, club med which is in cherating as well.

Snake Temple, Penang

by hopang

Penang Snake Temple is located at Sungai Kluang at Bayan Lepas near the Penang International Airport in the island of Penang. It was constructed in 1850 from a land donated by British resident David Brown, the owner of Glugor Estate. The temple is also known as Azure Cloud Temple which was built to dedicate Chor Soo Kong. The Taoist temple dates back to the 19th century. It is one of the oldest Chinese temples in Penang.Legend has it that snakes from nearby forests suddenly appeared in the temple soon after the temple was built. The Taoist monk thought that it was a good omen and immediately sheltered the snakes. Today only the species of harmless green pit vipers can be seen in the temple. The Snake Temple is a very popular tourist attraction in Penang. It attracts hundreds of curious local and foreign tourists daily. Visitors are allowed to pose with the snakes for souvenir snapshots...
