After spending Christmas in Cairo, my next destination en-route to Australia was Malaysia’s vibrant capital, Kuala Lumpur.
The first place I visited was the Kuala Lumpur Bird Park, a huge open aviary, where birds fly freely in an environment close to their natural habitat.
A natural segue from the Bird Park is the KLCC Eco Park, a rainforest preserve with a canopy walk, as well as the Menara Tower, offering panoramic views of the city.
The perfect way to round off a day is a visit to KLCC Park, which as the name suggests is located in the heart of the city centre. The park offers a view of the iconic Petronas Towers, as well as a nightly light show.
Naturally, this lively metropolis offers much more than can be experienced in one day, so I have chosen a small selection of the many attractions to cover in this review.
My next destination reviews will cover Kuala Selangor and the spectacular Cameron Highlands.
