Kuala Lumpur – first impressions

Kuala Lumpur - lovely mix of modern Arab and Asian architecture
Kuala Lumpur – lovely mix of modern Arab and Asian architecture

After 3 days spent in Kuala Lumpur, a daytrip to Melakka, countless bubble teas and lots of pictures taken it is time to move on.

Tonight I have a train ticket to Tanah Merah – and then a ferry from Kuala Besut to the Perhentian Islands. Right now I am in an Internet Cafe, trying to get a bit up to date with the blog writing. Fortunately I have uploaded a few photos to Picasa, but still a lot are only on my netbook.

Kuala Lumpur is far more pleasant to walk and do some sightseeing than Bangkok. That is the first thing I noticed.The second – the combination of skyscrapers (Petronas towers are just some of them), large parks and small green patches, different street food and a better hostel made me really enjoy Kuala Lumpur. Some of the better photos – or at least more interesting – unfortunately will come later.

For now – these are some pictures I took in the first evening here.
