Kuala Lumpur is an ultra modern city, which makes many Western cities look out of date. The iconic Petronas Towers are a must-see - they're so tall it's difficult not to. From here, head to Chinatown for an afternoon of bargain hunting and delicious street food. Kuala Lumpur also has the world's largest aquarium, an amazing experience for people of all ages. Round off your day in Little India, where you will experience a completely different atmosphere.
