Pulse of Malaysia

To say that Kuala Lumpur is the pulse of the Malaysian world would not be an exaggeration. In fact, the city is not only Malaysia’s political capital but also serves as the economic and the cultural crux of the country.

Foundation of KL

Around the mid 19th Century, the area of present Malaysia was visited by a group of men. These men settled around the place where the 2 rivers, Gombak and Klang meet. What today is an extremely busy metropolitan city was most probably initiated by these men.

KL is the biggest of all the other Malaysian cities. The city has a cosmopolitan atmosphere that enables the tourists to feel at home. As Kuala Lumpur conveniently retains its cultural heritage and at the same time, comfortably encourages the modern trends of life, the visitors are sure to have a wonderful experience.
