Lying between Huiquan Cape and Taiping Cape, Badaguan (meaning 'Eight Great Passes') is named after the eight great passes of the Great Wall. The area was once occupied by several Western countries, which is reflected in the eclectic mix of architectural styles from over twenty nations, including England, Russia, Germany, France, Denmark, and more. Badaguan shines in every season: in spring, Shaoguan Road bursts into bloom with peach flowers; in summer, crepe myrtles line Zhengyangguan Road in vibrant colours; while in autumn, the maple leaves turn a striking red. Even in winter, the area remains picturesque, with the cedars keeping their evergreen hue. Whatever the time of year, Badaguan offers a new charm waiting to be explored.

Originally built for the 2008 Olympic and Paralympic Sailing Competitions, the Qingdao International Sailing Centre has since become a sailing boat dock. You can rent a boat for a scenic tour around the bay or simply unwind at one of the nearby bars, enjoying a cold drink and the refreshing sea breeze.

At 452 metres, the Petronas Twin Towers used to be the tallest buildings in the world before being surpassed by Taipei 101 in 2004. Still the tallest twin buildings, they are a true symbol of the new Malaysia. You are welcome to the skybridge on the 41st floor. Petronas Towers are adjacent to one of the busiest shopping malls in Malaysia, Suria KLCC. Ticket sales start at 8:30am and are limited in number. If you plan to visit during the next 24 hours, tickets will need to be purchased at the Ticketing Counter on the Concourse Level, otherwise they may be pre-bought online. Time allotted per visit is 45 minutes, and includes visits to the sky bridge and observation deck.

This historic district made up of traditional wooden Malay houses on stilts will not be around for much longer, as pressure mounts on landowners to sell their properties to make way for new urban development. For now; however, you can still wander through and catch a glimpse of what KL's outskirts of the early 1900 looked like, complete with chickens and livestock roaming around, and all manner of street food cooked up along alleyways. Kamoung Baru hosts a weekly night market that sells clothing and handicrafts.
