Kuala Lumpur

As the proverb says, an image is worth more than a thousand words. Known as KL, Kuala Lumpur is the capital of Malaysia, an Islamic country with only 50 years of history, result of the union among some British colonies.

The most important, and the only KL’s tourist attraction, are the gorgeous Petronas Twin Towers (Petronas is the state oil company). Besides that, there’s nothing else; it’s a quite new city which sometimes may remind you of its neighbour Singapore, but without its charm.

Petronas Twin Towers were the tallest building in the world until 2004, until the Taipei 101 was built; however, as twin towers they remain as the tallest ones.

Having said that, you already know everything we could tell you about KL. So now , we invite you to enjoy the following pictures, as much as we enjoyed being there. Picture: Petronas Twin Towers at night
