Regarded as Kuala
Lumpur's most imposing site, the Petronas Twin
Tower is currently the world's tallest two
freestanding towers, whereby the 88-storey Malaysia twin tower
soars to a dizzying height of 452 meters above the city
skyline. This gleaming architectural delight inspired by
the Five Pillars of Islam is the centerpiece of the
ultra-modern Kuala Lumpur City Centre (KLCC) and the
retail centre that is located within the podium
of the twin towers has now become a major
shopping destination among the local and
tourists.
Also situated within the towers are the Petronas Philharmonic Hall, home of
the Malaysian Philharmonic Orchestra and the Petronas
Performing Arts Group. This famous landmark and also
Malaysia's pride was completed in 1998 and has
since become Malaysia's most visited attraction.
The view from the skybridge, on the 42nd
floor, is totally awesome since visitors will
have a once in a lifetime opportunity to admire
Kuala Lumpur's spectacular skyline.
