About Kuala Lumpur

Kuala Lumpur, capitale vibrante de la Malaisie, où les tours Petronas dominent quartiers malais, chinois, indiens et cuisine de rue réputée.

Les tours jumelles Petronas, reliées par une passerelle, définissent l'horizon, avec un parc paysager et des fontaines à leurs pieds. La tour KL offre une autre vue depuis sa colline boisée, et la place Merdeka, où le drapeau national fut hissé à l'indépendance, est encadrée par le bâtiment Sultan Abdul Samad de style mauresque.
