Kuala Lumpur is the capital and the largest city of Kuala Lumpur. It is also one of the best gateways to an amazing trip through Malaysia. The city is huge and features a cosmopolitan lifestyle much like any other capital city. It still holds on to its rich tradition and culture and there is much to explore other than shopping malls in the city. The Petronas Twin Towers are the most famous attractions in Kuala Lumpur but still, there are many other things that you could be doing here.

Petronas Twin Towers
​

The Petronas Twin Towers is the most remarkable and most iconic landmark of the capital city. At one time this happened to be the tallest building in the world. It still holds the title of being the tallest twin tower in the world. There are 88 floors which feature a beautiful mix of the post-modern style of a capital city imbued with Islamic architecture styles. The 41st and 42nd floor of the tower looks immediately attractive because of the sky bridge joining the two towers. The spectacular bridge, so popular amongst tourists, serves an important purpose- it serves as a supporting structure during very windy days and prevents the tower from swaying.
​

Most of the tower is rented out to private firms carrying on with their regular businesses. The lower floors are home to the Suria KLCC- it is a decorated and huger mall with more than 300 shops selling all kinds of things, an art gallery, a Philharmonic Hall, a science center, and so much more. The towers are a particularly brilliant sight after sunset when bright lights cover the entire tower giving it quite the majestic feel.
