Here Are 7 Wonders Of Malaysia For First-Time Travelers

Malaysia is called Truly Asia. That’s probably the best way to describe it. It has exotic beaches, a rich ethos, vibrant culture and deep-rooted tradition that Asia is known for. Probably, one visit is not enough to cover this great country, which has an expanse of more than 300,000 sq. km. But if you are traveling for the first time, here’s where you need to go: 

 

Head to Petronas Towers 

Feel on top of the world in the tallest twin towers in the world. This iconic structure has become a symbol of Malaysia. Enjoy the skywalk on the bridge, which connects these 2 towers. Plus, you get to enjoy the unbelievable cityscape from here. The perfect location for those selfies of a lifetime. 

 

Bask and play in Langkawi 

An island on the outskirts, Langkawi is famous for its pristine waters and beaches. It has plenty of hotels and hostels for honeymooners and backpackers. Plus, there’s plenty of recreation and dining options on offer, which makes this a magnet for tourists. 

 

Head for some Malacca spice 

Malacca is a colorful state, which lies next to the Malacca Strait. A lot of you must have heard about Malacca food or spices. Yes, the cuisine is great here but there’s a lot more to see here like the historic Portuguese buildings and churches, which dot this region. And for those history lovers, you can spend hours if not days at the numerous galleries and museums.

 

Get high in Genting Highlands 

Genting Highlands is a lovely hill resort, which offers plenty of nightclubs, eateries and recreation games for kids. But the highlight of the trip is an amazing cable car, which is also known as the Genting Skyway. We’d suggest see it to believe it. 

 

Enjoy fun in the sun at Sunway Lagoon Theme Park  

A gigantic theme park of 80 acres, this place offers fun and games for all age groups. It is a must-visit for your kids. The park is divided into three parts – Wild Wild West, World of Adventure and Waters of Africa.  

 

Enjoy the sights and sounds of the Batu Caves  

The most striking feature of these caves is the 140-meter high statue of Lord Muruga, also known as the God of War. The Cathedral cave offers plenty of shrines and idols of Hindu gods, which are accentuated by the sunshine streaming its way through the large opening at the top giving this place a divine aura. 

 

Make way to China Town – a shopping paradise 

Looking for the best bargain on electronics, clothes or fashion, this little shopping paradise in Kuala Lumpur is your go-to destination. You will be tempted to buy artifacts, souvenirs, clothes and other memorabilia stall after stall. Just a word of caution: haggle your way out for the best deals.
