The towers also offer a public skybridge and observation deck. The city is also home to British colonial-era landmarks such as the Kuala Lumpur Railway Station and the Sultan Abdul Samad Building.

Kota Kinabalu Malaysia

Kota Kinabalu, the capital of Malaysia’s Sabah state in northwestern Borneo, is often referred to as KK. A coastal city partly surrounded by rainforest, it is known for its bustling markets, modern boardwalk, beaches and waterfront Kota Kinabalu City Mosque.
