Kuala Lumpur originated as a shanty-mining outpost for the tin trade in the 1800's at the confluence of the Gombak and Klang Rivers. Today, KL, as it is popularly known, is a bustling metropolis. It is the federal capital of Malaysia and is the principal center of commerce, politics, entertainment and international activities. Kuala Lumpur serves as the pulse of the nation, with a population of 1.5 million people.
Whether your destination is a sun-drenched beach, a remote coral island rich in marine life, a dense tropical jungle with a multitude of flora and fauna or a cool hill resort hidden in majestic mountains, you can be assured every experience will be an adventure to treasure for years and years to come. Add to this the varied traditions and endless festivals of Malaysia's many races and cultures, and you will see the warmth and beauty of its people is every bit as exciting as the land. Wherever you go and whatever you do, Malaysia will captivate you with its sights and sounds.
With rainforests more than 150 millions years old covering large parts of Malaysia, one of the best ways to explore the length and breadth of this country is through jungle trekking. The mountains and hills, the countless terrain and the national parks and forest reserves, make the nation a haven for jungle trekkers.
Malaysia is a land of friendly people and a nation blessed with natural wonders. Bordered by Thailand to the north and Singapore to the south, Malaysia also stretches across the northern tier of Borneo to form the states of Sarawak and Sabah.
