Kuala Lumpur Tower / Menara Kuala Lumpur / The KL Tower

Kuala Lumpur Tower / Menara Kuala Lumpur / The KL Tower

In all of the we have visited Menara KL Malaysia in 2005. It was an amazing experience. My uncle came from India to see my son. We went there with few of my friends.

Other name for this building are

  • The Kuala Lumpur Tower
  • The Menara Kuala Lumpur
  • The KL Tower

An antenna  placed at the top of the building for communication purposes. This KL tower is the fifth tallest freestanding tower in the world. The roof of the pod is at 335 m .

The rest of the tower below has a stairwell and an elevator to reach the upper area, which also contains a revolving restaurant (bit costly – but once we have to try this restaurant), providing diners a beautiful view of the city.
