Malaysia Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in May)
Petronas Twin Towers Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in May)
The Petronas Twin Towers in Malaysia 🇲🇾
#malaysiatrip
The Twin Towers of Drunken Beauty (Kuala Lumpur) are the most worth checking out in Kuala Lumpur. The Twin Towers, which are 452 meters tall, are distinctive and iconic buildings in Malaysia. The visual shock and perfection they bring are not just comparable to a single building. Here, we recommend the best photo station location for friends and friends, which is definitely better than what you imagine when taking photos. It is best to take photos from 8:00 pm to 9:00 pm when there are relatively fewer people, so that more photos can be taken. When there are more unequal people, they need to queue up The arrow section in Figure 2 is the best space to capture the entire picture with a good visual effect. It is recommended to open the wide angle to 0.8 times the most exciting, and invert the phone lens. The best location for taking photos in the country is shown in Figure 3 and Figure 4. There is a lamp post and a right angled yellow line sign on Road 214 next to the entrance of Volkswagen Bank.
Flying twice a year, Kuala Lumpur has had a huge impact on me
I've been to Malaysia 🇲🇾 several times before, mostly island-hopping, and my impression of Southeast Asia has always been 'nature'. Kuala Lumpur was a surprise; it's quite like Singapore and Hong Kong, more prosperous, with a high degree of cultural integration;
Many people think Kuala Lumpur is not fun, but I feel Kuala Lumpur is not a place for play, it's more suitable for eating, drinking, shopping, and leisure vacations⛱️. It's incredibly enjoyable, and hotels and rentals are really cheap; to sum it up simply: you can spend very little and enjoy a prosperity that exceeds that of Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, and Shenzhen
The most satisfying points!!!
1⃣️🍜 The food is too delicious, leaning towards the tastes of Guangdong and Fujian, suitable for the constitution of Chinese babies, here are a few recommendations:
-Woo Pin Fish Head Noodle: The ceiling of fish head noodles, very fresh, recommended by a friend
-Sun Fong Bak Kut Teh: Both wet and dry Bak Kut Teh are delicious
-Jalan Alor: Followed the trend to go, but every dish is incredibly delicious, very worthwhile! Not sure why some people would say it's not good!
2⃣️ Hotel accommodations!
Almost every hotel comes with an outdoor swimming pool🏊♀️ and a gym! There are so many five-star hotels in KL that you can choose until you're dizzy, and those that offer views of the Petronas Towers at night are really worth it! Recommended!
The first time I went, I stayed at a friend's apartment, and I was shocked by the price of the apartment! Cheap...
3⃣️ Climate!
Who would have thought that the tropical region is not hot in July, and in the evening you don't even need to turn on the air conditioning. Just take a bottle of wine, sit by the outdoor pool, and be happy!
4⃣️ Culture
Kuala Lumpur is mainly composed of Malays, Chinese, and Indians, and you can see various integrations in architecture, cuisine, etc. However, since the religion is Islam, it is generally conservative. What impressed me was the Indian ladies on the streets wearing veils that only showed their eyes, each carrying Hermès and LV bags. I kept thinking about how their colleagues would distinguish them
You can also experience the old Fujian and Guangdong culture, many Chinese shops still retain many old traditions, such as handwritten menus in ordinary restaurants, which are still simply designed rather than a random piece of white paper
Beware of pitfalls⚠️:
1⃣️ Shopping: Many people say Kuala Lumpur is great for shopping, but I find it hard to judge, it depends on what you compare it with. Chanel makeup has discounts, many popular items from brands are out of stock, even if you walk into Hermès, you can't buy 🤷♀️, and the price advantage is average. Only a few watch shops I saw really had cheaper prices than in China
2⃣️ Internet-famous tourist spots: Places like the Pink Mosque🕌️ are worth visiting, the Petronas Towers are only suitable for distant shots, don't have too high expectations for most other places, otherwise....
TIPS:
1. Using Grab to take a taxi is very convenient, pay with cash!
2. Chain convenience stores like 7-11 and luxury stores can use Alipay.

Genting Highlands Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in May)
Free Entrance to Central Park @ Genting! 🎪
#malaysia
Yes, you heard it right! It's free entry to Central Park Genting Highland ♡
Going here at night makes me feel like I'm out of Malaysia somewhere around Europe. It's amazing to see there's a lot of cafes and restaurants open at night, with the natural cold weather up here at 21°C.
The best part, they have a huge projector that playd football game at night time, and also there's food trucks for you to try!
Amazingly, for durian lovers- you can not miss out to try their iconic musang king!
And for family and couples, go and try your luck and pro gamer movements to win plushies at their booths!
It is truly a romantic and cosy experience for me to be here. Definitely, a Gohtong Way ♡
Great indoor theme Park
#malaysia
Skytropolis is a indoor playground located at Genting Highlands . It is a fun place for children, parents and family. Most of the time queue is not that long(not school holiday)
Dont come too early as they only open from 2pm-9pm. Ticket can purchase directly on the ticketing counter. Now skyworld theme park is open, can consider buy hotel package with indoor & outdoor park, will be slightly cheaper.
Tip:Buy cheaper tickets online from Genting website. Otherwise it's RM10 more on-site. Best value is tickets for unlimited rides.
Nearest place to enjoy cold weather
#malaysia
Genting Highlands is known to be the nearest-to Singapore place to experience cold weather. because it’s very high up mountain hence explains the cool weather. Extremely perfect for weekend getaways. Genting Highland now has a mall call Sky Avenue and it has plenty of food restaurants, bars , casino and entertainment to cover all your needs. They also have upgraded their sky gondola some with glass floor to enhance your ride experience !
food recommended to try :
Burger and Lobster
A unique theme park
If you are first time here better read up how to utilise your time there. The park operation hour is from 11am until 6pm only. The rides range from average to pretty damn good. Please check the weather forecast prior to the day of your visit. The staff were warm and welcoming. The weekend are pack of people so if you can came weekday should be better.

Batu Caves Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in May)
Malaysia Visa-Free | 7 Days 6 Nights Off-the-Beaten-Path Itinerary Guide
Just got back from Malaysia, took an unusual off-the-beaten-path route, traveling north from Malacca to Penang, exploring and wandering along the way. Besides the cities with Southeast Asian charm, there was also the freedom of durian orchards. This visa-free country is really too tempting. Sharing a less-traveled route suitable for the whole family.
·
D1: Shanghai - Kuala Lumpur - Malacca
D2: Malacca - Broga Orchard Hill (Durian Orchard) - Kuala Lumpur
D3: Batu Caves - Ipoh Sunway Lost World of Tambun - Ipoh
D4: Ipoh - Taiping Lake Gardens - Kuala Kurau - Penang
D5: Penang Day Tour
D6: Penang - Kuala Lumpur
D7: Kuala Lumpur - Sepang HL Dragon Fruit Farm - Kuala Lumpur Airport - Shanghai
·
Penang:
Compared to Kuala Lumpur, I prefer the world heritage site of Penang, which features a mix of Southeast Asian, Muslim, Chinese, and Indian architecture. The strong cultural atmosphere, interesting graffiti in the alleys, and the dazzling markets are all reasons why I like this old city. Although there are quite a few Michelin-starred restaurants in Penang, I still recommend saving some room in your stomach for the night market snacks!
Malacca:
Also a world heritage site, Malacca is a bit more colorful. After visiting the Baba-Nyonya Heritage Museum, I finally understood the origins of the Peranakans and learned more about the history of Zheng He's voyages to the Western Seas.
Ipoh:
Malaysia's little Guilin, a small town in the mountains, with lots of delicious food. Saw a Malayan tapir at the Sunway Lost World of Tambun in Ipoh! So cute~
Must Eat Durian:
How can you come to Malaysia and not eat durian! The durians in Kuala Lumpur, the dragon fruits in Sepang, and the pomelos in Ipoh are all delicacies not to be missed~
Tips:
1. Malaysia is visa-free, with no time difference from China, and flights to Kuala Lumpur are very convenient.
2. There are super many wild animals, hornbills and monkeys can be seen in the parks. Please do not feed them randomly to protect the ecology.

Batu Caves
#malaysia
Located just a few minutes walk from the Batu Caves KTM station, Batu Caves is known for the gigantic Lord Murugan statue and the colourful 272 steps up to the cave and temple.
There were not a lot of people when we went around 8am in the morning. The weather is also not so hot, making the climb a bit easier. The cave is quite big and you can go up further to access another area of the cave.
There are also a lot of monkeys around the bottom of the cave but quite a number of the monkeys climbed up when we were going down from the cave.
🚶🏻♂️ Road to Heaven - Batu cave 🙊🙊
#malaysia
I am one of the people that still felt amazed from seeing the huge statue with my own eyes even after seeing so many posts in social media.
This place is not just full of visitors from all around the world, there are loads of monkeys and birds surrounding the area. If you wish, you could buy some bird feed for the birds or even fruits for the monkey. There are cave to explore once you reach the top!
There are ample parking spaces with RM2 / entry OR if you know the area, you can park at outside of shops opposite to the temple and with 3mins walk you can arrive here!
By the way, please keep yourself hydrated!

Penang Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in May)
Little Nyonya in Penang
Rent a Kebaya at the Nyonya Palazzo and you will get free entry into the Peranakan Museum (just next door)!
We had a good time exploring the museum (took so many photos and videos while pretending we are filming The Little Nyonya drama series with the family) and enjoyed some Peranakan food and kuehs thereafter.
Definitely one of the highlight for our Penang trip!

Pranglin Mall 1st avenue
#malaysia
The next time you are visiting penang, you can consider visiting the 1st avenue and the pranglin mall. The pranglin mall has been there for decades when we went there many years ago. Now with the newly opened 1st avenue mall, it really brings in the crowd. Similar to other shopping complexes, there are many retail outlets within the mall itself. There are many dining options to choose from. There is also a food court which serves a wide range of food at an economical and affordable prices at the higher level of the mall. We had our meal at the chicken rice restaurant located on the basement floor. We enjoyed shopping at both the malls which are just nearby each other. You can allocate an hour or two to visit the two malls.
Gardens at Temple
#malaysia
.There is a beautiful floral garden at the lek kok si temple. You would walk past the garden full of beautiful flowers. There are hibiscus, Roselle, marigold, mint flower, ginger flower, and many others. Resting at the sides of the garden are hundreds of Buddha statues surrounding the garden. There is hardly any shelter at the garden area as the plants require full sunlight to grow with good health. Bring along an umbrella or a hat when exploring the garden at the temple. You can take a grab from the town area to reach the temple for about 15 to 25 MYR depending on your location. It takes about 20 to 30 minutes to reach here.

#kualalumpur super budget lunch/dinner at the airport. Arrived quite late in the afternoon, I haven't had any meal yet so decided to eat at airport before heading out. Chance upon this local food stall where I saw many sit down here either to drink coffee or for a meal.
Turn out to be very affordable meal indeed. For the price of less than RM 15, I get my nasi lemak and huge cup of coffee. I love how generous they are in the portion.
If you need quick lunch/dinner fix, do head on to this place!
