The Sultan Abdul Samad Building, dating back to the late 19th century, is one of Kuala Lumpur’s most iconic landmarks. Distinguished by its copper-clad domes and towering clocktower fitted with a one-ton bell, it was originally constructed as the administrative headquarters of the British colonial government. Today, it houses the Ministry of Communications and Multimedia as well as the Ministry of Tourism. The finest views are from across Merdeka Square, particularly in the early morning when the light is softer and the area is quieter. After dark, the building is beautifully lit, creating an entirely different atmosphere, although occasional scaffolding may obstruct parts of the façade. A visit here combines well with nearby highlights such as Merdeka Square itself, the towering flagpole, and the River of Life.

Located in Crown Center, Kaleidoscope is a hands-on art space designed by Hallmark to inspire children’s creativity.

With such close proximity to the ocean and fertile tropical farms, you'll find some of Nicaragua's real treasures along the stalls of this market. It is also a great place to mingle with locals and get a true glance at local daily life.

If you are planning to visit the KL Menara Tower, make sure to drop by the Forest Eco Park right next to the tower, where flora and fauna that are unique to Malaysia's rainforest is represented. On a lucky day, you can observe two different species of monkeys, as well as birds and squirrels. Another exciting part of a trip to the park is the crossing of steep slopes, bridges and ladder sections, so be sure to dress accordingly.
