Malaysia

Malaysia is a Southeast Asian country occupying parts of the Malay Peninsula and the island of Borneo. It's known for its beaches, rainforests and mix of Malay, Chinese, Indian and European cultural influences. The capital, Kuala Lumpur, is home to colonial buildings, busy shopping districts such as Bukit Bintang and skyscrapers such as the iconic, 451m-tall Petronas Twin Towers.

Malaysia’s capital is a city many travellers fly through—but few truly get to know. But with spectacular street food, surprisingly stylish bars, an epic budget shopping scene and gorgeous religious monuments, Kuala Lumpur , or KL, is so much more than just a transport hub. Kuala Lumpur is one of our favourite cities in the world and Kuching and Sarawak we think, are fabulous destinations. The Malaysian people tend to be some of the nicest on the planet too, very kind, helpful folk.
