malaysia

finally my tomorrow has arrived.......

so from singapore v went to malaysia...in malaysia first v went to genting highlands...it is a mini las vegas...v went there by skyway...one of the longest roperails in the world...it was pretty cold out there as genting is situated on top of a mountain hence the name highlands...

well at genting there r 4 or 5 hotels...each connected by lifts n monorails n escalator...n like las vegas there r play areas for kids....where u play games n win teddy bears n stuff...also there is a casino there...(banned for malaysian muslims though)...the hotel where v stayed had an attached theme park...which was a again a mini version of our good old essel world...

after having quite a good time in genting for 1 n half day...v proceeded to kuala lumpur city of gardens...beautiful landscaping done all over the city...n colourful lights hanging on every tree..beautiful

there we saw patronus twin tower (4th tallest tower in world as of now....n the ONLY twin tower)...also saw kuala lumpur tower....its a telecommmunication tower...it seems taller than patronus twin tower coz its built over a small hill...the hill is called something annanas..

there is an interesting story abt it..some rich guy built his home on that hill..n to prevent thieves from entering he grew pine apple plantation around it...so the hill is called ananas (remember even in marathi ananas means pine apple)..thats why i remembered the malay version of the name too...hehe

then we visited chocolate factory outlet.....where v sampled delicious chocolates n of course bought some too.....

we also saw the kings palace.....quite a young couple...king is in his forties n queen in thirties...

from there we went to out hotel...n to our surprise our room was on 19th floor n from rifht outside the window we cud see patronus twin tower...n what a sight they were..glitttering as jewels...the whole building is made up of steel n glass on the outside...

n jus for information sake this is where shooting of movie Don has taken place..where shahrukh n arjun rampal fight...

next day we had to leave early in morning as the airport is quite situated outside the city...n we had an early flight to catch....

next attraction.....THAILAND...will write soon...
