Kuala Lumpur things to do
Istana Negara

It's a picture-perfect sight that'll provide lots of fantastic photo-ops, and one of Kuala Lumpur's most famous attractions.
Batu Caves
Batu Caves is a series of caves set within a steep limestone hill. What makes this place so special is the ornate Hindu temples and statues that have come to populate the caverns. Little monkeys roam the area, incredible paintings decorate the cavern walls, and a 140 foot statue of a Hindu deity stands guard at the entrance.
