Kuala Lumpur (or “K.L.” as it is commonly known) is Malaysia’s vibrant and pleasant capital city, an ideal stopover for shopping, dining and a day or two’s sightseeing. Sights in Kuala Lumpur include the impressive Petronas Twin Towers, the Hindu shrines at the Batu Caves, attractive Moorish style colonial buildings and some lively local areas. Kuala Lumpur is known as the “Garden City” and offers a pleasant stopover en-route to Malaysian beach resorts in Langkawi, Penang or Borneo. The best boutique hotel in Kuala Lumpur is the resort-style Villa Samadhi.
