A TRULY ASIAN WELCOME

Enjoying direct air links from almost every major city from all corners of the globe, Kuala Lumpur is a grand gateway to Malaysia's fascinating destination and it typifies the continuation of country's rich past. Just as the ancient Malay empire of the past, Kuala Lumpur's commercial centre is a grand meeting place for merchants and travelers from all over the world.

Kuala Lumpur brings together Malaysia's past and present, as characterised by the sight of the evocative British colonial buildings in the midst of the city's bustling streets and its shining, modern office towers. One of Southeast Asia's most impressive and energetic capitals, the city has grown over the course of the last century from a sleepy tin mining colony to a glittering global cosmopolitan. The Malaysian metropolis has weathered the turn-of-the-millennium Asian economic crises and continues to develop, optimism symbolised by the iconic thrust of the ultra-tall PETRONAS Twin Towers.

Home to some of Southeast Asia's biggest and most prestigious shopping malls, it is a popular shopping destination for both locals and international visitors. Kuala Lumpur is a city full of wonderful sights, lively neighbourhoods, magnificent architecture and rich culture.
