Have you ever been to Malaysia? Have you ever been to Kuala Lumpur? So, take a seat and let’s have a journey to this small city in the South-East Asia.
Malaisia was my first country, which I visited after a long stay in South Korea. Furthermore, this trip was like a gift to myself for the graduation.
So, it was end of the february. Weather is Korea was super winter, and I dreamed about warm place, about sun, about adventures. And here we go… Here are our adventures with friends.
Well, the topic of the post doesn’t sound like a good place for a vacation. But let’s look and decide, is it really truth or not.
A few words about city itself…
Kuala Lumpur is located on the confluence of Klang River and Gombak River. Kuala Lumpur is a pretty young city, which was established in 1857. The territory of Kuala Lumpur is about 243 sq.km. Population of Kuala Lumpur is about 2 mln people.
Till 1957 Kuala Lumpur was a British colony. Therefore, the most of locals speak a good English. Also, Kuala Lumpur is the largest logistic hub in the South-East Asia.
About transportation
I used Skyscanner to search the cheapest flight from Seoul to Kuala Lumpur, and it was AirAsia airlines. I used these airlines pretty often, and I would say that in comparison of price and quality, these airlines are pretty good. The seats are wide and comfy, staff is kind, and onboard meal is not so expansive. But, I usually buy burgers in lotteria in duty free xD
Kuala Lumpur is a pretty developed city, and transportation is well developed. There are many cars on the roads, and the same many motobikes. Also, there is a subway, which is fast and clean; monorail which can take you to the necessary destination for a good price.
I mainly used taxi. First of all, because we were 3 people, and taxi was a better option. Secondly, taxi price is very cheap there. Each taxi has meters, but not all taxi drivers want to use it. So, you should bargain about price or about meter.
By the way, there is a bus from Singapore to Kuala Lumpur. It takes around 8–9 hours. And I used this bus, and trip was nice. I had enough time to take a rest on the road.
