Kuala Lumpur is a lively city saturated in history and multiculturalism, and tourists get a sense of this vibrancy in the heart of the city, in the famed “Bukit Bintang” or “Golden Triangle” area. Travellers looking for the most rewarding experience of Malaysia’s culture would enjoy a stay at a premium hotel in Bukit Bintang. A fine Kuala Lumpur hotel located near fine dining and intriguing entertainment is the Grand Millennium Kuala Lumpur with stylishly-appointed rooms and exclusive amenities, making it a wonderful hub from which to sample Malaysia’s local treasures. Step through the portal of time into Malaysia’s past with a walk throughout the hidden niches of the city and discover a Kuala Lumpur out of the mainstream. At the Central Market, start on a trek called Malaysia Heritage Walk started by a group of local volunteers wanting to showcase their beloved city’s finest historical offerings. See the gorgeous art deco buildings that make up much of the downtown area. Experience the hustle and bustle of the street made famous by the Chettiyar Indian community, after they set up various money-lending establishments along the road known as Lebuh Ampang. Witness a blend of the old and new along Jalun Tun H.S. Lee, which boasts some old shops in their original form, almost comically set alongside more modern shops. Marvel at Kuala Lumpur’s oldest Taoist temple built by Kapitan Yap Ah Loy, to honour his master who was killed in a civil war. Sample a tantalizing array of authentic local cuisine from Chinese, Malay and Indian cooking to add that extra spice to your step. The Malaysia Heritage Walk is a fantastic journey through time and across cultures to experience a world that is truly and only Malaysian.
