Kuala Lumpur - With a different view


Always believed being a localite than a tourist will help to discover new places or more likely to  fall in love with a place much quicker.

With the same note , this trip to Kuala Lumpur we enjoyed the local food , majority of our commutes was in public transport and lived in a cozy condominium rather than a hotel.

Wonderful view from the condominium which we stayed for two days in Bukit Bintang locality.Closest to city center yet out of the main traffic

Was thrilled to experience the KLIA Express train, which is a direct train from Airport to City within 30 mins, where taxi will take easily 1 hour. There are also LRT & MRT train stations which will help to navigate between various locations with ease.

We found this far more comfortable than hiring a taxi , as there is no fixed fare.





Night life is vibrant in Kuala Lumpur. Walkable from the place is “Changkat Street” famous for pubs , restaurant and perfect for a night life.

If you really enjoy Jazz on a late evening , do ensure to check out a place called “No Black Tie”. Do make reservations to avoid disappointments during weekends.

Genting is under construction until 2016 and currently taking a huge makeover with Fox Studios, so better avoid any plans. However this did not stop us from visiting, and the weather never disappointed us.


Photo was taken around 12:00 PM and not at 6:00 AM during the cable car journey towards Genting. Covered with mist
Lone cable car in sight, even though there are more than 20 ahead us

Its almost time for dinner. Marinis is one of the restaurant at 57th floor offering Italian cuisine and situated next to twin tower and perfect for special occasion dinner. This is the maximum up close and personal view one can get of the Twin Tower.
