Things to do in Kuala Lumpur & around

Kuala Lumpur pairs the Petronas Twin Towers' Skybridge and the KL Tower Sky Box with the Islamic Arts Museum, the National Mosque and Museum, Central Market's batik workshops and Jalan Alor's street food. Batu Caves' 272 steps, Putrajaya's Putra Mosque, the Genting cable car and Cameron Highlands' BOH tea garden make easy trips out of the city.

Good to knowThe Petronas Twin Towers close on some Mondays, so check their calendar. Mosques welcome visitors outside prayer times and lend robes at the entrance. Monkeys roam the Batu Caves steps, so keep food and bags closed. Bring a layer for Genting and Cameron Highlands, which stay cool.
