Kuala Lumpur

Kuala Lumpur sits in near the middle of Peninsular Malaysia, just about at the equator. It’s one of Asia’s few truly multicultural cities, with Indians, Chinese, and local Malay (Bumiputera) people all laying the historical foundations of what is today Malaysia's capital city. KL has experienced a sort of economical and societal breakthrough in recent decades, with the efficient monorails, the two new airports and the iconic skyscrapers serving only as physical evidence. It’s a city of great and varied food, and great and varied humans. Humid mornings and humid afternoons, and what remains of some jungle that was there long before the city ever was. This is KL, warm in many ways.
