Being Tourist III ..

Thursday, January 1st, 2009

Amazingly it took us three years to find the time to go the Petronas Towers Skybridge … The view of the city is actually better from the KL Menara, but the close up view of the towers themselves is well worth the trouble of getting tickets.  Since entry is free, it is very popular, so you have to queue very early in the morning to get your allotted time, if you are they early enough you can pick your time … so these photos are from around 11.00 am …
