    Tourism  
    Kuala Lumpur is the center and symbol of Malaysia's rapid rise as an economic powerhouse.

    The rocket-like Petronas towers soar above a city built to impress, from the modern buildings of the Golden Triangle to massive shopping malls to driverless trains that glide across the bustling city. Yet nestled amid the high-rises you'll find remnants of the city's past: enchanting temples and mosques, small white-washed colonial churches and British Tudor-style clubhouses. At night, markets and lantern-lit streets ring with the sound of Malaysian, Chinese and Indian hawkers selling tantalizing dishes. While running hard toward the future, Kuala Lumpur still offers a glimpse of its colorful heritage and a taste of traditional, exotic Asia.
