    Menara Kuala Lumpur is the fourth tallest tower in the world after the CN Tower (Toronto), Ostankino Tower (Moscow) and Oriental Pearl Tower (Shanghai). It was build on top of Bukit Nenas; a small hill amidst a forest reserve within the golden triangle area of KL. The tower stands at 94 meters above sea- level and is 421 meters high. A welcoming sight for visitors to the tower is its beautifully landscaped pedestarian mall; complete with cascading pools and fountains along the walkaway. On the ground floor is a theatrette (showing a short documentary on the tower), an amphitheatre, a prayer room, ticketing counters and shoplots (for fast food outlet and souvenir shops). An interesting feature of the tower is its decoration in the form of Muqarnas - a traditional Islamic form of arts. Craftmen from KL's twin city - Isfahan of Iran - was specially brought in for this purpose. Reaching the tower head is a 2,058 steps of stairway but fret not as the tower is also equiped with 4 express lifts that will carry the visitors up to the observation deck within 60 seconds. The stairway form part of the route for the annual KL Tower Run sporting event. The tower head has 8 floors that include an observation platform, a revolving restaurant (Seri Angkasa), a telecommunication station, a building service floor, a brodcast station and a meteorological station. Visitors can enjoy a panoramic view of the city from its observation deck as well as the revolving restaurant. Hence, a visit to the tower is a must for a bird eye view of KL and its surrounding area. Admission: Malaysian - RM8 (Adults) & RM3 (Child) Foreigners - RM15 (Adults) & RM9 (Child) * Check out its website for package deals. Open: Daily from 10am - 10pm

    Menara KL located at Bukit Nanas is 421 meters is the 4th tallest telecommunication tower in the world. On a clear day you can see as far a Genting Highlands. The glass shape diamonds arranged according to the form of the traditional Islamic 'Muqarnas' can be seen at the lobby entrance and lift lobby area. This is really beautiful. This tower was completed in 1996. I have the opportunity to see it while it was being built and it was wonderful. We took the lift to the restaurant and then the stair to the observations area and outside to the telecommunication antenna area. But now only the Observations deck and revolving restaurant are open for public. Open daily from 10am-10pm Admission fee: RM8 (Adults) / RM3 (Children 4-12years)

    Menara Kuala Lumpur, one of the famous sky scrappers in South East Asia, has a breathaking height of 421 meter. It is highly recommended for you to visit Observation Deck, where at 276 meter above ground level, you will see from different side a breathaking KL city scene. In every window, there is also picture to show how the scenery looks like when the weather is clear (it was foggy days at our visit). It’s awesome!! The tour guide is multilingual audio tape that tells you detail about the Menara. On the wall, also there are highest tower worldwide (which I think needs to be revised when other highest tower in the world come to end of reconstruction) Romantic dinner can be done at the height. Treat your love ones with savory cuisine and tasty aerial view of KL.

    The perfect way of starting the visit to a city it is seeing it from the sky, in KL tower you can do this and makeup an idea of what is what you are going to find down there. KL tower seems to be nearly as tall as Petronas Towers because KL telecomunication tower is build in a hill. The area of KL tower is of big and long avenues so its better going by taxi or other transport.

    Here's another picture of KL Tower from another location. This tower can be seen from various parts of the city. If it's a clear night, it's a good idea to up to the tower to have a look at the nightline of the city. *********************** Observation Deck, spectcular view at 276 metres above ground level. Seri Angkasa revolving Restaurant, dine up in the clouds. Breathtaking views of the city in Malaysia's tallest revolving restaurant. Mega View Banquet Deck, an exclusive venue to hold your provate function with abolute privacy. Tower Terrace, relax to the sounds of a cascading pool, the breeze whispering through the trees and midst fans cooling you down. ***********************

    A must in KL is a trip to the top of the Menara Telecommunications tower. The view from up there is awesome! We went up in the late afternoon - entrance was cheaper and as the sun set the cityscape changed from spectacular to awesome!

    Menara Telekom is the new telecommunication building built in 2001 at a height of 310 meters. This skyscraper is Kuala Lumpur's and Malaysia's 3rd tallest skyscraper. The 55 storey building was designed by Hijjas Kasturi and Associates. It was opened in Feb 2003 by the Datuk Seri Dr. Mahatir Mohamad. The design was inspired by the bamboo shoot. We managed to take some good shots from the LRT. There may be a confusion between the KL Tower which is called Menara Communication Tower.

    The Menara Kuala Lumpur or KL Tower as it's commonly known stands at a towering 421meters and is currently the 4th tallest towers in the world. Situated atop the Bukit Nanas Hill in the city, it was completed in May 1996 and was officially launched by our former Prime Minister Tun Dr. Mahatir. This tower is divided into 5 basic sections: 1. Foundation Base 2. Touristic Base 3. Tower Shaft 4. Tower Head 5. Antenna Mast The architectural design of this tower was intricately produced based on the Islam tradition called 'Muqarnas' from Iran. Muqarnas was constructed in the arrangement of glasses on the domes of the lobby entrance to illustrate the 7 layers of the sky with sun rays shining from the middle. The design also represents the human journey for perfection in life. For a picturesque sight of the Kuala Lumpur city, head up this tower with no regrets. Also you will find a revolving restaurant, an observation deck, souvinier shops and an infomation booth to serve you. Price applies to get up to the tower.
