Crown Princess Hotel Kuala Lumpur

... When our slot arrived we first watched a 3D video which gave a brief history of the towers but was more of an advert for Petronas really. We then piled in to a lift and were given 15 minutes to walk on the Sky Bridge. The bridge provides great views over the city but I wouldn't say they were the most amazing views I have seen since you really aren't all that high up. I would definitely say that walking the Sky Bridge is a must though because of the iconic nature of the towers. <br>

... 8217;s version of Central Park. Within the grounds of the park, we went to a bird zoo. There we fed some birds and acted like little kids. We also marveled at some of the full body covering that some of the married Malay women were wearing, while Indian and Chinese women wear Western style clothes that weren&#8217;t exceptionally modest. From the zoo we met up with Jim and Raymond and headed to the Islamic Arts Museum. The museum outlined tons about Muslim ...

... are sometimes closed. I walked up the stairs, one by one, watching the monkey jump on the railings and fences next to me. Monkeys are literally everywhere here in Asia! After making it to the top, I looked a few little temples in the crevices of the cave. I saw the sign for the "Main Temple," and noticed that it was closed.

And after about half an hour waiting for more drenched people to arrive we eventually struck out for the main land. Arriving looking like we had swam rather than taken a boat we manage to find a taxi to Kuta Baru! Our taxi driver managed to reverse into someone on the way and then drove like a ...

Petaling Street in China town was fun to stroll around and the Hindu Temple was a bit scary with gross statues.<br><br>The most unforgettable experience there was a terrible scam and it happened before Jon came. In the middle of the city, I met a lady speaking good Japanese and her brother who friendly invited me to their home. Then I met their father who said he had worked for a casino. He taught me ...

I'm curious to see ...
