Kuala Lumpur


Another great bus ride later we arrived in the stiffling heat that was Kuala Lumpur. We had been recommended a hostel to stay in near the bus station and went to the hotel of the same name by mistake. It was the worse place we stayed so far. Even with air-con it just felt weird, like a multi-story car park with beds. Anyhow we did have an amazing view over the Petronas Towers and the Menara KL Communications Tower, set off one evening with the most amazing lightning storm.

We went to see the Petronas Towers and went up the Menara Tower and saw some great views of the city. In the evening found an indian in-door market to eat at. Again, we explored Little India, and China town and drank many fruit juices. In the Chinese market a little man selling herbal hair restorative saw Ben, thought he had found his pension scheme and chased him around the market.

Next Stop George Town, Penang.
