Every day they are handing out 800 or so tickets for the sky bridge tour at the probably most known landmark of Kuala Lumpur. This translates to huge queues and fierce combat for the free tour tickets early in the morning. I was there at 8:20 as the ticket counter opens at 8:30. As you can see, there were quite a lot of people already there...
Thankfully the queuing went fairly quickly as there was an older Australian mate there with whom I talked about barbies and leather thongs amongst other things. One and a half hours later I had a ticket for the 11:30 tour. Off to the Suria KLCC shopping center which is located at the bottom of the towers. You can find pretty much every luxury brand in existence having their shop there. Armani exchange, Brioni, Calvin Klein, DKNY, Ermenegildo Zegna, Fendi, Gucci, Hermes, Issey Miyake, Jimmy Choo, Karen Millen, Louis Vuitton, Moschino... I bet you could fill out the whole list with shops in there but that would be a waste of valuable blog space.
Anyway, the time was really easy to spend in the air-conditioned shopping environment and before long I was standing in the elevator to the 41st floor. There was also a 3D presentation about Petronas as a company and the building of the twin towers. But the true tour in my opinion began when we stepped out of the elevator:
The views were pretty amazing and even though you were only allowed at the sky bridge for a bit over 5 minutes it was still worth it. Enough time to take the compulsory posing pictures and marvel at the surrounding rooftops. I just wonder how spectacular the view is from the top floor offices...
Happy posing tourist
ps. scroll down for some additional pictures. I added some to the previous posts.
