Kuala Lumpur (or KL as it is commonly known) is more often than not a traveller's point of entry to Malaysia. KL is the most modern and developed city in the country, with contemporary high-rises and world-class hotels, glitzy shopping malls and international cuisine.

Modern Kuala Lumpur is rooted in the city's 'Golden Triangle', bounded by Jalan Ampang, Jalan Tun Razak, and Jalan Imbi. This section is home to most of KL's hotels, office complexes, shopping malls, and sights like the KL Tower and the Petronas Twin Towers, one of the tallest buildings in the world.
