Malaysia Wrap-up

I hope everyone enjoyed the Malaysia posts. Here’s a quick list of some of the stuff we saw and ate while we were in Malaysia.

Kuala Lumpur

To eat

• Noodles on Petaling St - We had noodles twice on Petaling Street and both times they were great.

• Anything you want on Jalan Alor St - It’s an entire street of food. Go and take your pick, then people watch while everyone else does the same thing. 

• Lucy in the Sky - A little cafe we stopped at one afternoon while waiting for our Grab

To see

• Petronas Twin Towers - Maybe the most well known landmark in Malaysia

• KL Tower - Not too far from the Petronas Twin Towers

• Petaling St - Kuala Lumpur’s Chinatown. Lots of stuff you can buy and good, inexpensive food.

• Kuala Lumpur station - Cool looking train station

• KL Sentral - Transportation hub you’ll probably need to know if you go anywhere from Kuala Lumpur

• KTM berhad building - Another cool building across from Kuala Lumpur Station

• Mahamarianman Temple - Old Hindu temple in the city

• National Mosque - Large mosque near the Perdana Botanical Gardens. Some of it is open to tourists.

• Perdana Botanical Gardens - Leisure area with lots of stuff to see, including bird and butterfly parks.

• Cenotaph - Monument to those who died fighting for Kuala Lumpur near the gardens.

• National Monument - Statue honoring the dead next to the Cenotaph

• Sultan Abdul samad building - Government building that looks pretty cool (lots of cool buildings here)

• Batu Caves - Religious caves north of Kuala Lumpur

• Dark Cave - Undeveloped cave at the Batu Caves with rare fauna. 33 ringgit entry

George Town

To eat

• Teksen Restaurant - Supposed to be a great Chinese restaurant. Too many people when we went to wait though

• Street food - Speaks for itself.

• Bistro Tang - A cafe we went to one morning. The ice cream brownie is excellent

To see

• Protestant Cemetery - Resting place for some important figures in George Town

• Cenotaph - Monument near Esplanade Park

• Fort Cornwallis - 18th century British Fort near Esplanade Park

• Chew Jetty - Wooden houses jutting out over the ocean where Chinese immigrants once lived

• Street Art - It’s all over the place and awesome

• City Hall and Town Hall - Government buildings by Esplanade Park and the Cenotaph

Pangkor

To eat

• I…didn’t get the names of any restaurants we went. I’m sorry. I’ll do better next time

To see

• Beaches - Because it’s an island

• Pangkor Town - Town where most of the locals live. Escape the beaches or grab some food

• Dutch Fort - Remains of a Dutch fort from when they were trading tin

• Fu Lin Gong Temple - Temple with a small replica of the Great Wall

• Masjid Terapung - Cool mosque built out over the water

• Beaches - Because that’s really why you go to Pangkor

Hopefully this helps someone find something interesting to do and ’m sorry there isn’t more info. Going forward I’m going to try to note down more when we travel. I you haven’t read the other posts yet check them out below.
