Kuala Lumpur is the center of Malaysia’s political, commercial and social life. Discovering Kuala Lumpur is like traveling through a time-tunnel. You will see skyscrapers standing elegantly next to rows of old-world shop-houses and hawker stalls. A large number of discount hotels have also been established in Kuala Lumpur.
Its many contrasts and sunny weather are part of what makes Kuala Lumpur such an excellent city to visit. Kuala Lumpur is an extremely fascinating city where you can spend several days and nights viewing the sights, sampling the cuisine, shopping for unique gifts, exploring the tropical surroundings, and - perhaps most importantly - getting to know the Malaysian people, who are particularly friendly and hospitable.
Its multi-racial societies foster a unique blend of age-old customs and traditions, colorful festivals, songs and dances and a rich variety of foods to tempt the palate. Despite its urban environment, Kuala Lumpur retains the ambience of a garden city with its attractive landscaping, lush greenery and extensive public parks.
