One Day in Kuala Lumpur

I only spent one day in KL, but I can tell that I fell in love with this city! Good vibe, delicious Indian food, amazing Islamic Arts Museum - there's definitely more to KL than just Petronas Towers! 
Nevetheless we started sightseeing with Petronas (of course!). During the day they look just like any other skyscraper, but at nightime - really impressive. They basically shine, i've never seen a builiding so bright! We walked around downtown and after a brunch we took LRT (subway in KL, interesting system for a single ride - tokens) and got to The Islamic Arts Museum. There is a reason why it is so high on Trip Advisor's To-Do in KL list. The entrance with student card is only about 2.50 SGD - great experience for such a small price. Later we visited the National Mosque - pay attantion to the opening hours for non-Muslim tourists to avoid unnecassary waiting. After sushi dinner we spent a little time in a Berjaya Times Square Mall. FYI it has 10 levels of retail stores, but even more impressive - there is a theme park inside! Rollercoaster in a mall? Only in KL! In the evening we hit the SkyBar at Traders Hotel - great view of the KL skyline at night. Perfect end of an amzing day: concert of Backstreet Boys in front of Petronas Towers - all these amazing childhool memories coming back (still can't get 'I want it that way' out of my head!)



Good morning KL

So worth seeing! Especially the architecture part

Taking break from great Indian food you can get
in Malaysia. (You can't have Indian for breakfast,
lunch and dinner). Sushi gluttony!
Singaporean accent - Tiger beer
