Included BB City tour & Batu Cave Temple
Kings Palace (photo stop) Kuala Lumpur is a bustling metropolis with unique landmarks that are instantly recognizable worldwide. One of Asia's most dynamic cities, Kuala Lumpur is a melting pot of races and cultures brimming with diverse entertainment options, exciting attractions and modern transportation systems. The city tour starts from the most prominent landmark - The Kings Palace, which officially became the National Palace in 2011. The King’s Palace or Istana Negara was built in 1928 and was originally the residence of a Chinese millionaire. The area is fenced up and at the front of the gate are two guard posts where members of the Royal Calvary guard the entrance. The palace is not opened to the public and the main entrance with the mounted royal guard at the gate is one of the main attractions for visitors to the Istana.
National Monument The National Monument is a sculpture that commemorates those who died in Malaysia's struggle for freedom, principally against the Japanese occupation during World War II and the Malayan Emergency, which lasted from 1948 until 1960. It is located in the Federal capital, Kuala Lumpur. The National Monument is a 48,562 sq meter space with 5 major components. The components are the monument, the pavilion, the surrounding gardens, the fountains and the war memorial. The Malaysian Houses of Parliament are situated near the monument. It is the world's tallest bronze freestanding sculpture grouping. Every year on 31 July on Warriors' Day, the Yang di-Pertuan Agong, the Prime Minister, heads of military, and the police pay their respects to the fallen heroes by laying garlands at the monument.

National Mosque This uniquely designed mosque embodies a contemporary expression of traditional Islamic art, calligraphy and ornamentation. Its most striking feature is the multi-fold umbrella-like roof which symbolises the aspirations of an independent nation. Standing prominently against the skyline is the sleek and stylish 73m high minaret. The central roof appears to be first glance a partially unfolded umbrella. The building itself includes a hall, a mausoleum, a library, offices, an open courtyard and a minaret. The Grand Hall is surrounded by deep veranda's. They provide a praying area and can easily accommodate up to 5000 people. The mausoleum, situated at the rear of the mosque, stands in a circular reflecting pool and is connected to the main building by a covered foot-bridge. It is circular in shape and is covered by a pleated shell concrete dome similar in shape to that of the Grand Hall but with only seven folds, one of which covers a reserve for the national hero’s tomb.
Merdeka (Independence )Square Merdeka Square is located in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. It is situated in front of theSultan Abdul Samad Building. It was here the Union Flag was lowered and the Malayan flag hoisted for the first time at midnight (time: 12:00 AM) on 31 August 1957. Since then, Merdeka Square has been the usual venue for the annualMerdeka Parade (National Day Parade).
Chinese Temple - Thean Ho Temple Thean Hou Temple is one of the oldest and largest temples in Southeast Asia. Southwest of the city, it is a popular tourist attraction and is located along Jalan Klang Lama. Overlooking the Federal highway, the six-tiered Buddhist temple is also known as the Temple of the Goddess of Heaven. Dedicated to Tian Hou, a goddess said to protect fishermen, the temple is also a shrine where many come to worship Guan Yin, the Goddess of Mercy. Built by KL’s Hainanese community in 1894, it is set on a hill and offers wonderful views of the city. Inside Thean Hou Temple is a modern Buddhist pagoda and plenty of Buddha images enshrined in the octagonal hall. There is also a statue of Tian Hou which sits between the Goddess of the Waterfront and the Goddess of Mercy.
KL Tower (Observation Deck) KL Tower is the 7th tallest telecommunications tower in the world with a height of 421m (it dropped one place in the rankings following the opening of Tokyo Skytree in 2012). Its Observation Deck is at a less impressive 276m, being situated on the lowest of the six levels in the head of the tower, but as the tower stands on top of a small hill, it still gives excellent views of Kuala Lumpur and the surrounding regions. KL Tower was opened to the public in 1996, nearly 5 years after construction started. It offers the same sort of visitor experience as similar towers in Seoul and Auckland which I have also visited. The rest of the tower below has a stairwell and an elevator to reach the upper area, which also contains arevolving restaurant, providing diners with a panoramic view of the city.
Petronas Twin Towers (photo stop) The Petronas Towers, also known as the Petronas Twin Towers are twin skyscrapers in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. This amazing building of 452 meters of height (88 floors and 32.000 windows) is one of the tallest in the world. The building is based on the five pillars of the Islam, which can be seen in the round shapes of the towers. The building is designed by Cesar Pelli, a famous architect. In 2004 the building won the Aga Khan price for its special architectonic building style. The PETRONAS Towers have become the figurehead of Malaysia. Within the towers you’ll find the most diverse companies. The largest part of the building is used by PETRONAS, the national oil company of Malaysia. The build has 88 floors, visitors can go up to the 42st floor, at 175 meters height, where a walking bridge of nearly 60 meters length connects the two towers. The bridge is not connected to either of the towers though. This makes sense, because both towers move independent of each other, the bridge just ‘hangs’ between them.

Batu Cave Temple
Batu caves is an iconic and popular tourist attraction where a large statue of the Hindu God, Lord Murugan at the entrance, besides a steep 272 steps at the foot of the limestone hill . This 113-year-old temple features idols and statues erected inside the main caves and around it. Incorporated with interior limestone formations said to be around 400 million years old, the temple is considered an important religious landmark by Hindus.

casino here boasts a whole host of luxurious gaming areas, including poker
and blackjack tables, lines of slot machines and plenty of bars to

Singapore Butterfly & Insect Kingdom

any nature to see. Singapore Butterfly & Insect Kingdom is testimony to that
fact, showcasing more than 3,000 different species of insects from across
the world. Set in a lush tropical background, there is plenty of vegetation
and blooming flowers that create an authentic and realistic environment, as

both nature lovers and families with young kids. The attraction starts off on
an educational note, with visitors being treated to a range of interesting
galleries and interactive exhibitions; this is all a prerequisite for entering the

information needed for spotting some wild life yourself. The jungle trail
takes you through eight different types of habit with an abundance of
different vegetation, trees and wildlife, including birds, insects - and if
you’re lucky - the odd reptile. You can find Sentosa Nature Discovery
