Kuala Lumpur

Founded in the 19th century by Chinese tin prospectors, Kuala Lumpur has mushroomed in size in recent years. Most visitors spend their time in a section known as the Golden Triangle, which has the city's best hotels, shopping areas, and sights. Here, you'll find symbols of Malaysia's boom time, like the towering Petronas Twin Towers.

The heart of the old city is Independence Square, surrounded by colonial buildings, among them the Sultan Abdul Samad Building, and the quaint Tudor-style Royal Selangor Club. Nearby Chinatown is a bustling trading centre, with a lively night market. Also worth a visit are the Lake Gardens, Central Market, and the cultural collections of the National Museum.
