Malaysia
Traditional Meets Modern in Tropical Surroundings
Malaysia's countryside is filled with the most magnificent tropical rainforests, and its shores are dotted with unspoilt islands. This wonderful blend of inland and coastal hotspots offers days of pleasure to nature lovers, whilst the cities and towns provide entertaining cultural treats.
Kuala Lumpur's majestic Petronas Twin Towers overlook the bustling, happening city with its designer goods at bargain prices sold anywhere from roadside stalls to elegant malls. The population stems from a mix of Malay, Indian and Chinese backgrounds, with the resulting local cuisine a treat for the taste buds. Escape to exotic islands such as Penang, Langkawi or Pangkor for a taste of untouched island living. Sip coconut cocktails on white sandy beaches as you watch the day's catch being brought in from the sea. Explore the lush islands on foot or rented scooter or go snorkelling to see the vibrant sea life. Take part in the annual Penang Parade and Cultural Festival in November.
