woohoo, my exams are over....REAL JOY HEHEHEHEH
anyways, wanna share some photos from my jalan-jalan KL one day trip
yeaps, 14 hours of walking, no joke, really felt like a foreign tourist haha...
and realize that KL is a really beautiful place, many fun stuff to do, one day is never never enough...so yea this is actually our 2nd trip, continue from 2010's trip.
Syok ah!!
so, one of our must do mission is to go to KLCC's skybridge, we thought that it's free admission and there will be super a lot of people, so we woke up at 6 and reach there about 7.30 something, only to find out that they actually charge 25 bucks for entrance this year. No wonder not many people were waiting when we reach. So yea, wait till 9 something and yeaps, we went to the skybridge.
yea tho it's 25 bucks, but once u step on that bridge, you know it's worth it!
ooops, i haven't mention who was my jalan-jalan mate
yeaps it's MIUYINN!! thanks for doing this again after one year!! 14 hours of walking would have been horrible without you!!
Other than the skybridge, we went to the 86th floor as well, which is pretty much the highest place la...
and it's really cool to see how cars and buildings look like legoland to me haha...
Next, took the train to Masjid Jamek. and our real WALKING TRIP started!
walked towards the Merdeka Square area 1st
Pretty Place, Loads of Foreign Tourist
Pitcher's Plant fountain :D
Sultan Abdul Samad Building, really beautiful place, awesome architecture!
Next, right beside the merdaka square, KL City Gallery
it's a new attraction...there's a small exhibition about history of Kuala Lumpur then a showcase of all the craftworks from ARCH.
Next, the Textile Musuem, which is quite a new tourist site as well. Really cool place, tells you everything about clothings, fabric, thread, accessories, from traditional to modern ones. Admission is FREE :D
But I must say, that place is abit scary, coz the setting it's kinda dark. I know they are trying to give the "very high class" feel, but that place is kinda empty and quiet, so u cant help but to feel abit scary....
Next, on our way towards Lake Gardens
Passed by the National Mosque and went to the Tun Abdul Razak Memorial as well.
Lunch : At Hornbill Reastaurant, @Bird Park
Damn expensive, and in fact not yummy at all.
All I paid for is the air cond.
The place look nice, but got the Bird Park smell. Yea....abit tak tahan...
Next, move on to Orchid Park
almost died from walking up the hill. Imagine the 3pm sun on top of us....almost wanted to give up edi..
But it was worth it once u reach there... really nice place to relax, plus, admission is free !!! woohoo
Pretty view and many fountains
Next, Hibiscus Park
again, almost died on our way up. Seriously damn hot. Honestly, didn't see many hibiscus. But also a good place to relax, if the sun is not that hot.
We took a one hour nap on the bench over there....
It was really hot, then suddenly, it look like it was going to rain.
so we didn't even go to the Lake Garden and walk straight to the National Monument.
and yes, it still rained. TT.TT
yeap we wore our yellow raincoat and walked up the stairs to see the monuments. Only had this photo.
it was raining heavily, in fact it was the day when KL was flooded. Yea imagine how heavy the rain was. we've got no choice but to wait until the rain gets abit smaller. Our next destination is Bukit Bintang. But sadly, the monument there got no bus at all. seriously, we waited for so so long. Didn't see a single bus. so plan B was to take a cab. And i don't know why on earth those taxi drivers didn't want business?? I mean, it wasn't only us who were waiting for taxis. Non of the EMPTY taxis stop mannn.....and there were many who were waiting for taxis as well, it was like a battle LOL almost wanted to cry and call our parents to fetch us LOL
but Thank God, one came and send us directly to Pavillion at 9 bucks. well i think it's consider okay la, coz our original plan was to go back to a train station and take monorail.
So yea, walked around in Pavillion and had our dinner at Food Republic.
Same thing as last year, bibimbap :D
Buddy Bears
Then we walked along Bukit Bintang, went to the malls like Fahrenheit 88, Sungei Wang Plaza, then walked to Timessquare as well.
Had Krispy Kreme doughnuts before we leave...
Yeaps, really really tired....but it's really really fun. we salah jalan, extra jalan, then explored some new and interesting place. KL is really really beautiful at night. Here's some extra shots....
