A true Asian Tiger, Malasia does its utmost to impress its visitors. Skyscrappers a-plenty, mixed with luxury beach retreats and ancient rainforests make it one very enthralling country. Its capital, Kuala Lumpur pays homage to commerce, international trade and wealth without forgetting its humble roots as a tin-mining community. Poverty is still evident on a large scale, but so are prosperity and a constant feeling of hope. There are so many shopping malls in KL, it''s a wonder anyone has any money left to do anything else, but there is plenty more on offer despite bargain-priced clothes and electronics. There are museums, ancient temples, old colonial strongholds and markets. There are Asian-themed modern masterpieces otherwise known as hotels, more bars and restaurants than you probably can imagine, largely catering to a huge ex-pat community and the massive Petronas Towers, once the tallest in the world, dominate a rising skyline. Kuala Lumpur is a mix-match of religions, time periods and styles and this is most evident in its architecture. Head to Merdeka Square, the beating, pulsating heart of colonial KL to see the Victorian St. Mary''s Cathedral, Moorish Sultan Abdul Samad Building and the mock-tudor Royal Selangor Club. Just the other side of the Lake Gardens is the National Museum. The interesting displays chart Malaysia''s cultural and economic history, and the numerous permanent installations describe a little bit about life beyond skyscrapers and production lines. This city likes to show off and have fun, so there is plenty to do for kids. Aquaria, right in the heart of the city, is a huge aquarium teeming with underwater life. You can expect to see rare sand-tiger sharks, a fearsome creature which can wholly consume a meal within seconds, as well as slightly more friendly-looking animals swimming along the sides of the tanks. If you want to stick to a watery theme, then why not pay the Sunway Lagoon a visit. With slides allow you to get up to thrill-educing speeds and attractions such as the longest suspension bridge in the world, this is not just a place to take the children. With these and many more things to provide a visitor with days of entertainment, it''ll be hard not to be impressed by Kuala Lumpur.
