- Vaishali LimayePune, India158 contributionsMalaysia is blessed with both nature and man made marvels. The twin towers is one of the most significant man made marvel we saw. (Eiffel and Burj Khalifa ofcourse) But this structure stands out for its unique pattern. We kept craning our necks to Starr at the towers. We booked the tkts through Klook and the entry was very seamless. We made sure we arrive on time. There was another family who had missed the time by 15-20mins but were not allowed in. So make sure you are on time. The staff showing around are very nice and courteous. We enjoyed our walk on the bridge and the deck at the top.
Just below the towers is the KLCC Surya Mall and behind are the fountains and garden. lots of thing to do around Petronas! We went there almost everyday during our stay in KLWritten 30 May 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

A lot of photos to Petronas could be taken there.Written 2 May 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- 456brianlAdelaide, Australia93 contributionsThis is my second time to the museum and still love it, amazed by the scale, collections, staff and organisation.
It’s a perfect place to visit especially on a hot day (proper air conditioning, free wifi). I also dined at the Restaurant Noza, the food were delicious, though tourist price.
Definitely would recommend people to visit, be them local or international. The museum shop is a good place to get souvenirs. There is a small onsite car park if you’re driving there.Written 30 May 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

Great opportunity to take photos since many of the birds roam freely. Yes, some of the birds are in cages, but all the birds we saw were healthy and well-treated.Written 5 April 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- T0mmieCastricum, The Netherlands156 contributionsWhile in Kuala Lumpur, you cannot skip Jalan Alor. This street is situated in the Bukit Bintang area and is THE foodstreet by far. Nothing much to do during daytime. But after 5 pm, it all comes to life. Streetlife but then aimed at food. There is an abundance of restaurants and Hawker stalls. They cater for everyones needs. The proces are not over the top, although you shouldn’t expect to eat very cheap either. Give it a go. You will not be disappointed.
If this review was helpfull to you, pleas give a “usefull vote” so I know I was of help to you. Enjoy your stay!

The staff were polite and welcoming, and was available to give us a guided tour within 5 minutes. The young tour guide, Poh, was very professional and knowledgeable. The whole place was elegantly presented, products in the show room have a huge variety, and the pecan cake in the Cafe was delicious. It’s definitely a place worth visiting!Written 24 May 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- tiramisucheesecakePetaling Jaya, Malaysia35 contributionsGreat place to see an overview of life and towns/cities in Malaysia. Highly recommend to visit as this place is made extra interesting with scavenger hunts, fun facts and moving items.Written 1 June 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Phil GAlbuquerque, NM541 contributionsVery nice. We did a lot of walking. Did not find the walker until the latter part of our trip. Wish we had found it sooner, it would have given us more time to explore.Written 28 March 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Alex HPort St. Mary, UK1,172 contributionsFree entry into a beautiful temple just out of town, which holds beautiful views and makes for some candid photos. It’s also a place of worship to remember to be respectful and cover up accordingly. Definitely recommend visiting this colourful temple!Written 20 May 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- AliShah Alam, Malaysia9 contributionsAs a mosque, it's great, it can be considered as a "all in one" mosque since they have more than what normal mosque would have. They even have classrooms and special rooms for lectures and seminar-like events. They have multiple areas for ablution some of them are MASSIVE. A big plus for taking care of stray cats and kittens. They do have an area that could be use for taking pictures for special occasions such as weddings but things could look much better if the places aren't as moldy. However, those who are in a wheelchair have no method to get to the main praying area.
As a tourist attraction, it's between "good" and "great" for me. I was quite surprised to find multiple al-Qurans with translations in different languages because it was my first time seeing them in person. They do have a schedule for when Non-Muslims are allowed to enter the mosque for tours but they are quite small and easy to overlook which resulted in some tourists were told off by the staffs and guards. They even have a special place in the main praying space just for tourists to come in and take some pics of the place. They do provide robes for tourist who aren't as covered as they should be to enter a mosque.Written 6 June 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

The price are vary, and maybe you need to find more sellers to compare the price. There are lot of stuff, such as bag, fabrics, accessories, food and drink as souvenir, t-shirts, etc.Written 1 June 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Harry LiGuilin, China15 contributionsThis Jalan Petaling Chinatown is not appealing, stalls are selling fake goods, but you can get some football jerseys of the local football clubs, fake but it actually the same fabric as the real ones. You can try some Chinese food here but it’s better to try them in Pudu.Written 16 March 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- AnnaPetaling Jaya, Malaysia2 contributionsOne of the most affordable attractions in KL. Kids fee only rm10 (Malaysian). Worth every penny. You will need to spend minimum 2-3hours. Please come in the morning or you will missed a lot of stuff in there.
This was our 3rd visit. We went in at 3:30pm and we missed:
- big slide (close at 4:30. )
- mini movie (close at 4:30)
- makers studio also close early.
-Even the cafe closed. This pissed me off because kids were hungry and thirsty. The food were plenty but they wont serve us because its 5pm!!
At least put up a vending machine.
Oh and the capsule ride is rm5/pax. They used to be free. Kids enjoy the ride.Written 14 May 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.
