If you only have 48 hours in Kuala Lumpur, these are 10 places you can't miss (along with bonus places at the end):
1️⃣ Petronas Towers
You should go during the morning & evening to enjoy both versions. If you want to visit the Sky Bridge & Observation Deck, it's closed on the 1st & 3rd Monday every month.
2️⃣ Batu Caves
Time: 7am to 9pm
Try to go early in the morning or in the evening to avoid KL's midday heat as well as the crowd.
3️⃣ Thean Hou Temple
Time: 8am to 8pm
Go around 6/6:30pm & stay till 8pm to see both sides of the temple. The temple looks beautiful as the sky changes hue & the lanterns light up. Alternatively, you can visit in the afternoon & have the place all to yourself!
