Kuala Lumpur is the capital of Malaysia. Often referred to as KL. It is filled with a variety of people who are friendly enough to help you with most problems you may have.
1. The People and The Culture (4/5)
The population of KL is very diverse. You will find Christian, Hindu and Islamic influences everywhere and from what I've seen, they have been able to integrate peacefully. Everyone shows off their culture respectful, in ways which breeds tolerance and some lovely art.
2. Things to Do (4/5)
There is no shortage of things to do and sights to see. It is a very lively city where there is always something going on, even late at night. I suggest stepping out of your comfort zone and singing some karaoke. The one draw back is that I didn't experience a whole lot of nature here. Like I was told many times 'KL is a mall city'. They are everywhere. So, if you like shopping make sure to take advantage.
3. Transportation (5/5)
Transport is definitely not a problem in the city. There are taxi's, busses, trains, the works. Most things are fairly close also so walking is also an option. Furthermore they have loads of transportation apps which make getting around even easier.
4. The Food (3/5)
The food is ok. There is some international selection. But most of the cheaper food is mostly local street food. Its pretty standard SEA food with some local variations. Good but again, nothing particularly spectacular
5. Standouts (2/5)
Although I think Kuala Lumpur is a great city and I had a fantastic time, writing this made me realize, there weren't any real standouts. The great thing is the feel of the city. It has a lot of city life but still manages to keep a calm air that is pleasant to be in. However, nothing particularly special standout about the city.
Overall 18/25
