Masjid Jamek, Kuala Lumpur

Disadvantages: None

...I visited Borneo and Kuala Lumpur last year and being a massive fan of animals, myself and my boyfriend visited all the animal related attractions. One of these was the Kuala Lumpur Bird Park. Where Is It? Kuala Lumpur Bird Park is situated in the Lake Gardens area of Kuala Lumpur which is close to the Orchid Gardens and the Tun Abdul Razek Memorial. The bird park is a little bit out of the main town in Kuala Lumpur as we did try to follow a map and find our way there on foot but after getting lost and asking a couple of locals which way we needed to go, they told us we would be better getting a taxi. So get a taxi we did and good job too because it was about a 15-20 minute journey to the Bird Park. The Lake Gardens area where the Bird Park is situated also have many other attractions such as The Deer Park, Orchid & Hibiscus Garden... Read review

...Kuala Lumpur is capital of Malaysia and now developing fast to become a modern place and central area for Malaysia residents and foreigners. Kuala Lumpur is now climbing up in all the areas including economics, socials, tourism. As a Malaysia, i had travelled to Kuala Lumpur for more than ten times. I always travelled to Kuala Lumpur by bus where it took 5-6 hours to reach there from Siangpore. It is a nice place to travel where there is alot of shopping centres and entertainment areas including night activities. The expenses in Kuala Lumpur is also reasonable.

Travellers must not walk... Read review

...My self and my boyfriend stayed in Kuala Lumpur for three nights in October this year and had a wonderful time. GETTING THERE We visited Kuala Lumpur as part of a package deal. We flew to Borneo, stayed there for 2 weeks, and then flew from Borneo to Kuala Lumpur, which took us about 3 hours. A flight direct from Heathrow to Kuala Lumpur would take about 13 hours and many people choose to do stop overs in Kuala Lumpur, as it is very easy to fit into any package deal. The main reason we decided to include a stopover in Kuala Lumpur (often called KL) was because it was offered to us at a very cheap price, £8 per night per person and we thought it would break up our flight home. ACCOMADATION We stayed at the 4 star Capitol Hotel which was right smack bang in the middle of town. We found this to be an excellent location as we... Read review
