Luminous fireflies
Often called “A Night of a Thousand Stars”,
this wonderful sight is provided by Mother Nature on the
coastal town of Kampung Kuantan.

This village is surrounded by fruit orchids and mangrove trees.
Get on a "Sampan" (Malaysian boat) and ride down the river,
taking in fireflies on display. What a spectacular sight.

Then have dinner at the fishing village and try some of the local
seafood at a restaurant on the river. An evening to rememb
er.
The Sultan Abdul Samad building is
located in front of Dataran Merdeka and
Royal Selangor Club, by Jalan Tunku
Abdul Rahman.

and was used to house several
government departments at the time of
the British administration in Malaya.

Today, this historical building houses the
Supreme and High Courts. The building
with unique Moorish designs and clock
tower is widely photographed by visitors
to the city centre.

On important occasions, the building is
decorated with colourful lights and flags.
The famous Dataran Merdeka is also
just across the street from the Sultan
Abdul Samad building.

Menara Kuala Lumpur
(KL Tower),
Menara Kuala Lumpur stands
majestically at the top of Bukit Nanas, at
421 meters and 94 meters above sea
level. Commonly referred to as KL Tower,
visitors will find that the tower has
become a well-known icon in the city's
skyline.

It also ranks seventh amongst the tallest
telecommunications towers in the world
and was constructed over a period of four
years, with architecture reflecting the
country's Islamic heritage. The
construction incorporates Arabic Scripts,
Islamic tiles, classic Islamic floral with
abstract motifs.

Besides the panoramic view, KL Tower
has something for the city-dwelling,
nature enthusiast. The verdant green
surrounding Menara KL is the Bukit
Nanas Forest - the only oldest gazetted
forest reserve in the country.

It covers an area of 10.05 hectares and is
considered the 'Green Lung' of Kuala
Lumpur. It is a sanctuary to a wonderful
array of flora and fauna which is unique
to our tropical nature.
