Heading to Malaysia? Fantastic! No doubt, you’ll want to visit the capital, Kuala Lumpur. So what should you do there?
Kuala Lumpur is the capital of Malaysia and, with over 1.8 million people, there is a lot to do here. It’s home to the iconic Petronas Towers and the just-being-finished second tallest building in the world, Merdeka 118. There are fascinating museums, mosques, colonial history, an amazing bird park, some of the best food you’ll ever eat and so much more.
Since you’ll most probably visit Kuala Lumpur when you head to Malaysia, we talk all about it in this podcast episode.
There is a lot to enjoy about Kuala Lumpur (or KL as its often referred). So much, in fact, that even though I have been there countless times, I feel I have still only scratched the surface.
That’s why I am joined by Siddoz, a KL tour guide who you can find on withlocals here – a website that helps you connect with local and private tour guides. He is going to share the best of KL with us.
By the end of this episode, you’re going to be super excited to visit KL and have tons of ideas about what you want to do and eat.
