Definitely worth a visit, fun for all ages. All the staff were amazing!! We tried to book in person for a couple of days at the towers but sold out. Only way in was booking tickets via trip.com and the prices were the same!
It's worth a visit. Besides taking photos at the Petronas Twin Towers, it's also worth taking the elevator up to the 41st, 83rd, and 86th floors for a panoramic view of Kuala Lumpur. However, it's best to book a week in advance, especially if you want to see the night view.

First time trying this!😍 it was fun experience, the wind is so strong so better to tied your hair, good scenery and nite strolling around the city, pls wear mask also to avoid dust and air pollution, you can only bring water bottle and no eating during the trip, thanks
This bus in Kuala Lumpur is incredibly convenient, allowing you to hop on and off at your desired stop. I highly recommend purchasing tickets directly through Ctrip, which is incredibly convenient and fast. Upon arriving in Kuala Lumpur, I realized how powerful Ctrip is! It's so worry-free!

As a vibrant Southeast Asian metropolis, **Kuala Lumpur (KL)** gives tourists the impression of **diversity, bustle and high cost-effectiveness**, but there are also some pain points that may be encountered during travel. The following is a real experience from a personal perspective:
### **👍 Experiences worth praising**
#### **1. Check in at landmarks and take photos📸📸📸
The night view of the Petronas Twin Towers (KLCC)** is super beautiful, especially the light show in the Fountain Square, which creates a full atmosphere at night.
- **Independence Square** and **Sultan Abdul Samad Building**: colonial-style buildings, suitable for taking retro blockbusters.
- **Batu Caves**: colorful stairs and giant statues, with a strong Indian style (but there are so many monkeys, be careful to grab food!).
#### **2. Foodie paradise, street food explosion*🍻🌮🍗
- **Jalan Alor**: A must-go for tourists, there are many grilled chicken wings, satay, and durian stalls, but the prices are a bit expensive (locals recommend the small alleys around **Petaling Street**).
- **Nasi Lemak** and **Bak Kut Teh**: Must-try for breakfast! **Village Park** or **Xinfeng Bak Kut Teh** are recommended.
- **Mamak**: Roti Canai + Teh Tarik, a soul combination for midnight snacks!
#### **3. Shopping is fun and the prices are friendly** 👜👜
- **Pavilion KL** and **KLCC mall**: A full range of big brands, often with discounts, cheaper than domestic when the exchange rate is good.
- **Central Market**: Buy handicrafts and batik cloth, suitable for souvenir hunting.
- **Night market near Pavilion**: roadside stalls selling phone cases and accessories at night, bargaining starts at half price!
#### **4. Convenient transportation** ✈️🚝🚘
- **Grab taxis are cheap**, most of the city is 10-20 MYR, more reliable than taxis.
- **Metro (LRT/MRT)** can reach major attractions, but the transfer is a bit complicated (Google Maps is a must to check the route).
#### *5. Multicultural experience**
- You can see **mosques**, visit **Indian temples**, eat **Chinese teahouses** in one day, and the language is basically fluent in English + Chinese.
---
Complaint points**🤢🤢🤢🤢
**1. The weather is so hot that it melts
- 30℃+ all year round, high humidity, and sweating profusely after walking outdoors for 10 minutes. It is recommended to go out in the morning and evening, and avoid shopping malls at noon.
2. Some tourist attractions are "photo-cheating"**
- **Petaling Street (Chinatown)*
The Kuala Lumpur Tower is one of Kuala Lumpur's landmarks, located in the Bukit Nanas Forest Reserve in Bukit Bintang, at an altitude of 421 meters. From the observation deck at the top of the tower, you can see the entire city in 360 degrees, especially at night, the city lights are shining and the scenery is charming. In addition, the tower has facilities such as revolving restaurant, transparent glass viewing box and tower trails to provide a rich experience. If you like high-altitude views and city views, the Kuala Lumpur Tower is a good choice.

Strolling and eating in Petaling Street, Kuala Lumpur.
Petaling Street in Kuala Lumpur is a must-visit place, and it is also a place where good and bad people mix. It was built in the 1850s by Chinese miners. In 1880, Malaysian Chinese Yap Ah Loy opened a cassava flour processing factory here. Because cassava is called "ci" in Cantonese, it was named "Petaling Street". After the factory closed in 1882, this place gradually developed into a vibrant Chinatown.
Here you will have an illusion that you have returned to China. Chinese elements can be seen everywhere, including Chinese archways, buildings, and stalls.
There are many Chinese shops selling all kinds of things, as well as gold shops, Chinese spices, local specialties, etc. At night, many stalls will be set up and it will be very crowded. There are all kinds of fruits at moderate prices. I also bought delicious soy milk and delicious ginger candy tofu. There are also rice noodle rolls and stuffed tofu, sugar-free pork porridge, braised duck, wonton noodles, etc.
There are several famous food stores, such as the clay pot coffee and roast meat in Bihualou, Shengji clay pot, Xinjiuru beef noodles, Hejiu Hainanese tea shop, etc. Many stores have to queue up.
I also met a beautiful woman taking pictures. I don’t know which country she is an internet celebrity or a star.
A trip to Kuala Lumpur isn’t complete without wandering through Petaling Street Market. Bustling with energy, it’s packed with street food, souvenirs, and hidden gems. I tried some delicious dim sum and grabbed a refreshing bubble tea while browsing the stalls. A lively spot for food and bargain hunting!

The Floating Mosque is located in Sabah, Malaysia. The white building is reflected in the water, which is suitable for taking photos. The opening hours are 8:00-17:00, and long clothes and long pants are required. Tanjong Aru Beach is a 15-minute drive from the mosque and is one of the three major sunset destinations in the world. The best viewing time is 18:00-18:30. Both attractions are free to open. It is recommended to go to the beach to watch the sunset after visiting the mosque in the afternoon.
Pink Mosque Take the Yellow Line No. 12 subway to the terminal station Putrajaya. After exiting the station, take a taxi to Putrajaya Lakeside Club. The fare is 7 yuan. Here you can clearly see the panoramic view of the Pink Mosque in the water across the lake. Take a walk along the lakeside and feel the tranquility of the surroundings. For 2 yuan per person, a boat will take you from the shore to the Pink Mosque (cash is not accepted, but Alipay is accepted). Because I didn’t figure out the time when tourists can enter the mosque (unfortunately I didn’t get in before 10 o’clock), you can also go to the Pink Mosque first and then go to the Lakeside Club to see the panoramic view of the mosque in the water.

Renowned Kuala Lumpur night market

This night market is quite big and long, very popular, and has a large flow of customers~
The whole night market is mainly food, and the popular online merchants are very popular, so you have to wait for a seat~
The taste is pretty good, but the service is not very good, with local characteristics, and the service is very casual~
The environment is pretty good, and it is quite spacious for a night market. It is not bad to just walk around and experience the local night market culture~
It was a trip to Malaysia with family. we visited Jalan Alor. We had good time there and really enjoyed the atmosphere and ambiance there

Independence Square (Dataran Merdeka) in Kuala Lumpur is a historic landmark where Malaysia’s independence was declared in 1957. This expansive green field, flanked by colonial-era buildings, offers a striking view of the iconic Sultan Abdul Samad Building with its Moorish-style architecture and clock tower. The square’s 95-meter flagpole—one of the tallest in the world—stands proudly as a symbol of national pride. Surrounded by museums, churches, and the River of Life, it’s a perfect spot for leisurely walks and photography. Both by day and night, Independence Square captures the spirit of Malaysia’s heritage and modern unity, making it a must-visit city highlight.
The Merdeka Square in Kuala Lumpur is a landmark attraction in Malaysia and is well worth a visit. It is a symbol of Malaysia's independence. On August 31, 1957, the Malaysian flag was raised here for the first time, declaring the country's independence. At the south end of the square stands the world's tallest flagpole, which is 100 meters high and is a popular spot for tourists to take photos. The square is surrounded by many historical buildings, such as the Sultan Abdul Samad Building, whose architectural style combines Victorian and Moorish elements and is of great ornamental value. In addition, the Merdeka Square also has fountains, colonnades and flower beds, with a beautiful environment suitable for leisurely walks. This place is not only a witness to history, but also a cultural and activity center in Kuala Lumpur. Important festivals such as National Day are held here every year.
