MALAYSIA - KUALA LUMPUR

Malaysia is one of the most pleasant, hassle-free countries to visit in southeast Asia. It's buoyant and wealthy, and has moved towards a pluralist culture based on a vibrant and interesting fusion of Malay, Chinese, Indian and indigenous cultures and customs.
Most visitors to Malaysia stick to the insane headlong rush of Kuala Lumpur, the colonially soothing Cameron Highlands Hill Station or the hedonistic torpor of Langkawi. if your been malaysia then must visit the Geeting Highland, Cameron Highland, Bukit Tinggi Highland, if you interested of the beach then you must be gonna the Pulau Redang, Pulau Perhentian, Pulau Lang Tengah, Pulau Langkawi, Pulau Long Beach & Etc.

Kuala Lumpur is the capital of Malaysia. It is very much like any other city. Overcrowded with high-rise blocks, traffic congestions, shopping malls, entertainment spots, Kuala Lumpur has them all. What's great about KL remains in the less glorious like the pasar malam (night markets), the mamak stalls (Malaysian's version of side walk cafes), selling kuihs (pastries) and nasi lemak. Anyhow, if you arrived Kuala Lumpur you have to try the nasi lemak and roti canai. Make time to dine and devour. Skip the shopping or the sight seeing if you have to. Malaysia seem like a food court. Malaysia Foods Malaysian cuisine incorporates many influences including Chinese, Malay and Indian. Enjoy a fusion cuisine called Nyonya Baba - a blend of Chinese, Malay and other influences. You can also find western and other cuisines in this food conscious city. If you want to experiment, try one of the many lunch and dinner buffets offered by many city hotels. Great value and a gastonomic experience!

Malaysia Travel Guide Taman Negara - What To Do?

Before I proceed on the activities that you can do there, let me explain about the park rules. The most important thing is you must have an entry permit to enter the park. Next you can't fishing and take photographs without license. So let proceed with the activities that you could do there in the mighty jungle.

The most popular attraction there is the Canopy Walk. The Canopy Walk is about 45 meter up in the air. The canopy walk was built for research but later open to the public. Any visitor to Taman Negara shouldn't miss the Canopy Walk. Although the Canopy Walk was built with safety but it still scare me as hell. The walking down ladder is crazy man. It even worst than the walk up in the air. I am very glad to step on the flat ground. I think this will be the first and the last time for me. Entrance fees is RM10 for adult and RM6 for child.

Orang Asli means 'Original People' in the Malay language. They are believed to be the original people of Malaysia. They have been living in the forest for the past hundred years. It took 20 minutes boat ride to get to the Orang Asli Cam from Kuala Tahan. The Orang Asli will demonstrate how to make fire. They are also famous with the poisonous dart. The dart is the bullet for the blow pipe which is used in hunting. Don't worry the Orang Asli will teach you to use it.

Next you can spend a night in a wildlife observation hide. There are six hide available in the Taman Negara and they can be reached either by walking or taking the boat. You need to be really quiet to let the animal come out. Among the famous wild animal to be seen are wild cats and wild pig.

So I hope you will enjoy your Taman Negara Vacation

Malaysia Travel Guide - Where to Eat Langkawi

It is time to eat now. Malaysia is rich with its local foods. There are numerous of local food that you should try. For me, if you came to Malaysia and eat at the five star hotel without trying the local foods. There is no point for you to have vacation here. Go out and try the local foods especially the hawker. Some of them serve the best food in town but make sure they are clean.

When I went to Langkawi, there is a very huge and beautiful restaurant near to my hotel. Then I took a cab to Kuah for some shopping, the taxi driver was very friendly he told us where we should go for shopping plus he told us where is the best restaurant in Langkawi. He also told us that the huge and beautiful restaurant is very expensive and the food are not tasty. After some arrangement he agree to take us to his recommend restaurant.

At 8.00 p.m he pick up us at hotel lobby. He took us to the Kampung Nelayan Restaurant located in Kuah. However this restaurant is very hard find. For you information this restaurant was featured in Jalan-Jalan Cari Makan( a famous culinary television how). So no wonder there are no table available for us. We have to wait about 10 minutes to get a table but it worth to wait. All the seafood are very fresh and the most important part is cheap.

After about an hour later, the taxi driver came to send us back to the hotel room. We bought some foods for the taxi driver as a symbol of thank you. The food was so good and it makes me forget about my high blood pressure .I think I should take a good care of my health after this.
