Kuala Lumpur to Penang

Om byen: Kuala Lumpur er beliggende ved sammenløbet af floderne Kelang og Gombak og er hovedstaden i Malaysia samt landets kommercielle, økonomiske, finansielle og kulturelle centrum. Kuala Lumpur er en af de fremvoksende byer i Asien og oplever en hurtig udvikling og er nu en pulserende metropol. Kuala Lumpur er en by af kontraster, en kombination af moderne, kosmopolitisk og gammel verdens charme. Gamle koloniale bygninger, templer, minareter og kupler blander sig godt mod en baggrund af skyskrabere. Petronas Twin Towers, en af verdens højeste bygninger, dominerer dens skyline, men følelsen af gammel verdens charme hænger stadig ved i den ældre del af byen. Den frodige grønne vegetation overalt gør det til en haveby, og om natten er dens bygninger og gader lyst op og forvandler Kuala Lumpur til en by af lys. Kuala Lumpur er en multikulturel by med en unik blanding af skikke, traditioner, farverige festivaler, kulturer og et stort udvalg af lækker mad. Denne dynamiske by har meget at tilbyde for enhver besøgende.
