Kuala Lumpur Attractions by Areas

What to See in Kuala Lumpur

From traditional, culture-rich sights to modern, tourist-friendly sites, its safe to say that Kuala Lumpur’s inventory of attractions occupy opposite sides of the sightseeing spectrum. Visitors looking to indulge in retail therapy will be glad to know that bargains can easily be found in Chinatown while KLCC is the best place to head to if you’re looking for high-end fashion finds. Besides that, the beauty of KLCC lies in its uniformity – ultra modern with none of the trappings of Chinatown’s atmospheric ambience, it’s the best place for travellers looking for modern adventures – there’s the Aquaria KLCC, Petrosains, Petronas Twin Towers, Galeri Petronas and Bukit Nanas Forest Reserve. Meanwhile, Putrajaya (Malaysia’s federal administrative capital) has found a winning formula and is sticking to it with large scale attractions – such as the Putra Mosque and Putra Perdana – surrounded by lush greenery.
