Malaysia, Kuala Lumpur

KL is a big bustling city and we only spent 2 days here.
There is a fast metro / light rail / monorail system but it's actually made up of a number of different lines run by different companies and tickets are only available on one line at a time and sometimes the junctions are far away. Nevertheless you can zip across KL quite quickly. The KL Sentral train station is modern and has ATMs and food. All train / light rail / monorail lines go through the station.
You need to see the Peronas Towers, the world's largest twin towers. There are free tours up to the Skybridge on the 41st floor (The towers have 88 storys) Tickets are given out on a first come first served basis and you need to be there by 8:30 at the latest to get a ticket for the day. You are given a time and must come back and do the 20 minute tour. Have a walk around the KLCC park next to the twin towers. The KLCC shopping center is good with an excellent Asian Food Court. Movies are also fairly cheap here at RM10.
