Kuala Lumpur is the MOST Underrated City in the WORLD 🇲🇾 (Malaysia)

[@iirgendsonTyp]

I traveled to most of europe, couple of north african countries, whole southeast asia , the us, costa rica, south africa, namibia, tansania, turkey and what not... BUT KL is the best city i have ever been to. Fell in love on first sight and have been there a couple of times since then.

[@louiseexploretheworld]

I am happy to hear that you fell in love with KL! 😁

[@josephlew4801]

I was there in July last year , spend almost 2 months , have a blast , I will be heading back in August 20 again , this time will spend at least 10 months , will be heading to lots different places beside kL

[@josephlew4801]

Including the east coast , sabah and Sarawak , Borneo as well 😄

[@marengprapu2090]

U are welcome to my lovely country

[@SyafieHanifah]

U should spend 1 week for each state in MAS (minimum). * MAS has 13 states & 1 Federal Territory consists of 3, KL, Putrajaya & Labuan.

[@allanchesterdevera5806]

Me too. I will be back in October in KL. My third time in Malaysia 🇵🇭❤️🇲🇾

[@allanchesterdevera5806]

​@@marengprapu2090 I LOVE MALAYSIA SO MUCH. MALAYSIA IS MY SECOND HOME 🏠🇵🇭❤🇲🇾

[@irfanaslamkhan1897]

I lived in KL for four years starting 2002 to 2006. Had a blast. Oh yes son you must eat whenever you feel hungry. There aren't any restrictions. KL is a diverse city and the food is great especially Malay food.

[@nomadjim]

Nice to see you are back in KL. I usually stay at the Robertson so I'm very familiar with the complex and the neighborhood. I'm sure you've discovered by now that behind that locked door off the kitchen is likely a washing machine. I've stayed in several apartments in the Robertson and most have a washing machine. The last one I stayed in even had a dryer...very unusual to see that. Just Fruits is a great place to buy most groceries. There are some restaurants, cafes and even a craft beer place located in a secluded small neighborhood directly behind the Robertson. You can access it by going to the first floor, walking through the parking garage, and walking out the back entrance. The "Sky Needle" is KL Tower. They do a light show on the tower in the evenings. That's a Catholic church across the street. You'll hear the bells at 6 am and 6 pm every day. The 15 minute walk to Pavilion Mall and the other cool places around there (like Damascus) is reasonable. From that outdoor section in Pavilion you can walk to Suria KLCC using a covered and somewhat airconditioned elevated walkway. The area with all the bars is Changkat. You're right about KL being a place no one talks about in the US. No one seems to know anything about it. Not sure why it's that way but it is definitely undiscovered for most Americans. For me, it's one of my favorite cities in the world. Enjoy!!

[@rachelgriffin5930]

So glad i found this comment. I'm going to KL in October and am also staying at the Robertson so your tips are so helpful! thanks!

[@nomadjim]

@rachelgriffin5930 Glad to help! Enjoy your time in KL!

[@purplelavenderland]

Kuala Lumpur is the MOST Underrated City in the WORLD ----> lets just keep it as it is. I am Malaysian, and I guest most of Malaysian prefer to be reserved about what Malaysia is all about. Anyway, we welcome everyone to our country with open heart. Have a pleasant stay and WELCOME BACK 😊😊

[@adamrsamian3964]

As a Malaysian, I totally agree with u 💯

[@ViolentCabbage-ym7ko]

That's not good economically because tourism makes up around 14% of the GDP. There's definitely more potential for tourism to grow in Malaysia in order to become a high income country.

[@RastaMan-o1u]

@@adamrsamian3964 Yes..me three..agree with u

[@adamrsamian3964]

@@ViolentCabbage-ym7ko that comes will foreigners who just vanish from the system....

[@ViolentCabbage-ym7ko]

@@adamrsamian3964 That's due to government incompetence. Without tourists, the tourism industry would collapse, leading to widespread economic hardship in many regions. Businesses that rely on tourism, such as hotels, restaurants, and tour operators, taxi drivers and even doctors and nurses (medical tourism) would suffer, leading to job losses and financial instability. This is why during the pandemic, many Malaysians withdraw from KSWP because there's little income.

[@AbdulAhadYTC]

I lived 4 years in Kuala Lumpur as a student. Kuala Lumpur is right up there with first-world countries in terms of infrastructure, whether it's housing, buildings, malls, or transportation. It is an unbelievable city.

I have gone to Malaysia seven times, it's a very nice place with lots of friendly people.

KL is my favorite city in Asia. I have been to KL 11 times. Going back again next year.

[@louiseexploretheworld]

Good to hear that!

[@Angler12]

while living in Vietnam i would go to Kuala Lumpur if i was missing America. Very modern yet inexpensive. If you love shopping, Kuala Lumpur is a must visit destination.

[@marsfuture]

Same, I'm just doing my visa run from Vietnam to KL again this month. But I find the city terribly boring with nothing to do apart from going to the mall and eating the very tasty but calorific Middle Eastern./ Indian / Malay fusion food. Penang and Bangkok have a lot more to offer. I'll give the city this second chance now, if it doesn't captivate me any more than last time, I'll go to other cities instead.

[@WalCircle]

@@marsfuture if you wanna play tourist kl isn’t the place. Penang, ipoh, langkawi, cameron/genting highland are much muchh better place to go. East malaysia also provide great islands.

[@marsfuture]

@@WalCircle What East Malaysian island can you recommend? Would be interested to know! Haven't heard so many great things about Borneo, apparently expensive and not as beautiful as people imagine at first.

[@chiangea3495]

Yes very true, Malaysia & KL is very liveable : reasonable rent, friendly locals, English Speaking population, Truly diverse Asia foods, Cleaner Air, Low noise pollution, many parks & trees in the city and many more !😊

[@alexmurtravel]

KL good city, I love atmosphere and many times visit Malaysia. Also upload few videos from my trip. City is clean and many good places to eat, drink and great park for running

[@OpoOnTheGo]

The food scene there has me on the edge of my seat every video, so excited to finally make my own way out next year! Safe travels and tasty bites

[@amyrrrr9765]

KL is a super amazing city. It's a big transport hub for Australia. I love it there. Have an amazing time there 😊

[@mo_yams]

I legit shared the excitement you had for the Damascus Shawarma. Hands down the best in KL, if not the world! Their generous helping of garlic sauce (the white sauce) takes the shawarma to another level. We live about 20 mins away from Bukit Bintang (without the jam) and we'll have it delivered via Grab Food, beats waiting in line for an hour 😅

As an indonesian living in Jakarta my whole life (20+ years in PIK 1 area), Kuala Lumpur is definitely on my top 3 favorite place to visit! Its definitely live-able, vibrant, clean & the most important is ORGANIZED! Very contrast from Jakarta 😂 a lot of indos (especially Jakartans) will come for me for this comment but idc, bcs the reality is Jakarta is a MESS. Indos will always argue that jakarta is fancy, filled with modern buildings and walkable (well true, but they only mentioned scbd area and sometimes PIK, as it's starting to gain more attention due to rapid development), but the 90% / the rest of Jakarta don't even have functional sidewalk 😂 i'm not saying KL is 100% walkable, i found some parts where the sidewalk don't even exist, but compared to jakarta, its WAYYYY live-able. At least KL is not filled with beggars, illegal street food vendors, pickpocket, and low-iq racist religion fanatic 😂 where as Jakarta is a whole circus y'all. When i stated this type of comments, indos get mad instead of admitting the foul of Jakarta 😂 and asked me to move out to KL. Trust me, i could, right now, move to to KL/SG happily. But y'all indos know damn well why i or any other "rich" / middle-upper class indos chose to stay in indo, despite all the mess .. y'all didn't have to play dumb, bcs money rule everything here in indo .. from cheap labour, easy access to build and run a company & you can buy a way out of ANY problems due to corrupted systems 😂 jakarta / indo is a HEAVEN for middle/upper class, and i'll lose all those privilege if i move to other country so ... in a way thats the "positive" of living here 🤪🥹

Have you been to Kuala Lumpur Bird Park?. It contains a variety of unique and rare birds. But if you want a traditional village atmosphere or life in the forest, you can go to a tourist location in the state of Selangor. For information : • Kuala Lumpur used to be under the administration of the state of Selangor before the state government handed it over to the Federal Government to be made a Federal Territory.
