Fuel up with street food for lunch

You can’t go to KL without a food hunting session, so make your way to Petaling Street. With choices like hokkien mee, beef noodles, porridge, chee cheong fan, yong tao foo, loh shu fun (believe us, we can go on with this), you’ll have the time of your life indulging in some of the most delicious food in the world! Petaling Street also offers charming and colourful stores for you to get your bargain shopping on, as it’s one of the best shopping spots in town. If you’re not up for street food, open up the app and explore places nearby such as Pampas Reserve and Pintu.

Go to the top of Petronas Twin Towers

With 360-degree views of KL’s beautiful skyline, how can anyone who visits KL miss this? Officially opened in 1999, the towers are more than just a symbol of the country. They are a work of art that travelers from all over the world come to see. Imagine walking across from one tower to another, taking in spectacular views you wouldn’t be able to find just anywhere. How amazing is that?

Grab a healthy pick-me-up at Life Juice, The Intermark

Refresh or cleanse with a healthy dose of nutrients and antioxidants at Life Juice! Before embarking on your shopping spree, perk up your energy levels with one of the best fresh juice joint in town. Enjoy a variety of thirst-quenching concoction such as the Green-Tox — for those who are watching their weight, 500 Days of Summer — a blend of strawberries, grapes, mint leaves and others aiming to enrich brain productivity, or Bugs Bunny — for clear and improved eyesight!

Shop, shop, shop, shop, shop

When it comes to shopping in KL, the list goes on! Apart from Petaling Street, there’s also Suria KLCC, Pavilion, Lot 10, Fahrenheit and more. Pick any one of these, and you’ll find plenty of international brands with local surprises, and it’s easy to simply walk from one mall to another. To get a glimpse of the local art scene, visit the Central Market for artsy souvenirs you can take home to remind you of your stay.

Have a local dinner at Bijan KL

After exploring the city, we bet your tummies will be ready for more amazing local food. Well, Bijan (the Malay word for ‘Sesame’) at Bukit Bintang is one place you wouldn’t want to miss! It offers refined Malay dining with a twist – traditional Malay recipes cooked with modern ingredients, a perfect balance of the old and the new.
