About Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia

The city of Kuala Lumpur is one of Asia’s most thriving metropolises and is home to over 4 million people. Commonly known as KL the city is also one of the biggest business hubs in Asia.

Though Kuala Lumpur is primarily urban in nature today, remnants of the country’s old colonial past still remain. This is mainly apparent through some of the Georgian style buildings that still stand today in the Dataran Merdeka.

Kuala Lumpur has since moved on from its colonial days and has become heavily modernized. The most prominent symbol of this modernization are the Petronas Towers that are situated in the centre of the city and are the World’s tallest free standing towers. Many of the buildings in the city have more traditional influences despite their modern outlook. Inspiration stems from Asian traditions, Malay Islamic sources, modern and postmodern influences giving the city a unique urban feel.

While business plays a vital part, there is no shortage of leisure venues in the city. Kuala Lumpur is a shoppers’ delight featuring a plethora of electronic goods, clothes and other items. Many of the markets have a real exotic charm to them and feature an array of colour that will dazzle your eyes.

Beyond the Petronas Towers and the shopping options in KL, the city also offers a variety of beautiful buildings, parks and other nature related venues as well as fun filled theme parks. As a result numerous Kuala Lumpur hotels are spread throughout the city to accommodate the steady tourist population of Malaysia.
