Kuala Lumpur

We have had a great time in Kuala Lumpur, it's a fun city with an interesting history and lots of things to see and do. We made the most of our time there seeing the sights, visiting museums, landmarks, galleries, nature parks and sampling local food.
We ticked off a couple more activities on our wedding gift list including lunch at Atmosphere 360. A revolving floor restaurant at the top of the Menara KL Tower. The views over the city were fantastic and the meal was delicious. While we were there we discovered that there was a BASE jumping event going on. It was crazy, people were free falling passed the window while we were eating.
We also went inside the world famous Petronas Towers, we decided to go in the evening to see the city lights at night. It was amazing. We visited KL bird park, it houses the world largest free flying aviary.
We learnt that there is currently a 10 day Hindu festival being celebrated so we visited one of the oldest temples in Malaysia one evening. It was such an interesting experience, all the people were dressed in traditional brightly coloured clothing wearing the most beautiful jewellery and robes. There was singing, dancing and prayer rituals going on and it was fascinating to watch.
Our accommodation in Kuala Lumpur was really cool too. A quirky loft conversion guesthouse which the owner, Willi, houses his collection of vintage memorabilia and antique furniture mixed with contemporary art work. He also had two huge iguana, a huge rabbit and a friendly cat. Very random but we met some great people there and enjoyed our stay.
