Awesome Pavilion KLCC, Park and all around Kuala Lumpur !

#malaysiatrip 🌇 Kuala Lumpur: More Than Just Petronas 📍 #kualalumpurdreams #asiavibesonly #travelwithsoul #balitovietnam Most visitors believe that Kuala Lumpur’s highlight is the Petronas Towers. And yes, they're beautiful. Majestic. Gold-silver shimmering. But life here goes beyond those icons. If you want to truly experience KL, live like a local—not just another tourist. --- ▌ 🏨 Arrival in the City Center: Mandarin Oriental and Qatar Airways I arrived via direct Qatar Airways flight—the world's top carrier for 2024–2025. Checked into Mandarin Oriental, Kuala Lumpur—a hotel that feels like home. Right beside the Petronas Towers, always gleaming in photos and memories. Yet, stepping outside around 11:30 PM brought a surprising revelation. The towers were... unlit. Unlike previous visits, where they glistened golden and silver all evening long. Now, past 10–11 PM, their lights switched off. KL seemed to have cast a magic spell, changing scenery. Instead of glittering neon signs, silence reigned supreme. In place of bustle, tranquility descended. I realized then: There's another side to KLCC—its hidden beauty. 🍳 Morning Ritual: Breakfast and Peaceful Strolls Waking up with the morning rays, I enjoyed one of the finest breakfasts I've ever had. Fresh fruits, coconut omelettes, coffee infused with coconut milk (just like Kaizen Coffee in Bali). A feeling akin to being home—but in a new yet familiar setting. 🏛️ Exploring KLCC Park & Pavilion: A Hidden Gem Walking through KLCC Park is essential. Trees, shaded paths, joggers, families, dogs—it’s an urban escape within reach. You enter the park, lose yourself—and don’t wish to leave. Next door lies Pavilion KLCC, a large shopping mall adjacent to the towers. More than just a shopping spot, it's a hub connecting locals and travelers alike. I prefer visiting early morning, when crowds haven’t gathered yet, making the city feel almost empty. --- ▌ 🏯 Journey to Batu Caves My friend picked me up mid-day, and we headed towards Batu Caves—a sacred Hindu site known for its stunning views and spiritual aura. Climbing stairs, gazing upon statues, encountering playful monkeys—it was breathtaking. My first time there, and instantly one of my trip highlights. 🏛️ Discovering Kek Lok Si Temple After leaving Batu Caves, we ventured toward Kek Lok Si Temple—one of Malaysia's largest Buddhist shrines. Grandiose, colorful, scented with incense, it evoked feelings. 🏌️♀️ Day Highlight: Golf Courses and Rose Fields That same afternoon, we explored pristine golf fields surrounded by tropical greenery. It came as a shock. Never expected such well-manicured spots existed in KL—blending tropics with European precision flawlessly. 🍜 Final Touch: Dinner at a Chinese Restaurant Evening fell, and my friend took me to his favorite spot—a Chinese eatery in Chinatown. Food? Authe
