Did you check out Mount Santubong and the Sarawak Cultural Village in Kuching? When you get a chance to climb Mt Kinabalu, tallest peak in SEA let me know!! It's a great achievement for us, waking up at 3am and start our journey at 4am to get to the peak at noon, best time to see the wonder! If you ever visit KL again, check out the Sunway Pyramid Mall...it's similar to the mall in Cape Town Africa, beside the mall it has a prestigious hotel and a lagoon park, perfect weekend getaway for family and groups. Check out the Chinatown and the art galleries, or drive 2.5 hours to Malacca for historical places or to Langkawi island...it's filled with legend there. Keep the articles coming!! Love it and I can share mine experience in those cities/countries you visited or going to. Did you try the seafood in East Malaysia?

KL holds a very special place in my heart. Yes, you are right about the night scene. I didn't get to enjoy it up close, though, but I as able to take really nice snapshots of the Petronas Towers from Bukit Bintang :D The KL Tower is also an experience. I'm also very impressed with the airport and enjoyed walking around while waiting for my flight back home. I'd like to go back and I hope that it's sooner rather than later....

In the park, there is a fountain pool for children to play and get wet, and a nice silver Dolphin display. How about the night scene? It's really something at night, looking up from the ground of 452 meters high and from a distance. It was built in 1998, designed by the American architects, I believe they are residing in KL as their home choice now. Let's not forget this building idea was from our former prime minister, he had a vision for Malaysia, passing the torch to a new continent. Well, the building aspire to construct a monument of KL's prominence as a commercial cultural and heritage capital that would capture the title but the public imagination, proclaiming its modernisation. The identical towers are linked by a bridge at the 41st floor like going up to the Empire State Building in New York, it created a dramatic gateway to the city. It was a scary feeling up there looking down, probably because I am afraid of heights and so when the wind blows the curtain glass wall, although the structure is high strength concrete as stainless steel with sun shade, my heart almost fell, not so much fun for me but i enjoyed looking at my beloved KL!! Ffor common people like me that never been to an oil rig would find PCD neat and informative for students too. The Symphony Ochestra Hall, it's like another Carnegie Hall in America, so don't no need to travel so far to enjoy or experience an orchestra band, majestic KLCC has it all! Beside the Petronas Twin Tower, the awesome sight of KL Tower, the tallest tower in Southeast Asia, fourth of its kind in the world, stands at Pineapple Hill at 421 meters high. And, KL International airport would be the first welcome impression for all first time visitors, this place should be explored too, the most hi-tech airport in Asia as claimed to be.
