   Hike Malaysia's tallest mountain - Mount Kinabula 
   Hiking 4095 meters is one amazing experience. But when the mountain is home to 600 species of
   fern, 326 species of bird and 100 mammals the journey to the top because a lot more exciting.



   Gunung Mulu National Park
   You feel to be in a different world altogether when you see huge limestone karst formations in a            mountainous equatorial rain forest. Not only this Gunung Mulu park also exhibits vast cave network
   which contains parts of world's largest underground river system.
   And if you want more this park has the largest know natural chamber- Sarawak Chamber which is
   so big that it can accommodate about 40 Boeing 747s without overlapping their wings.




  Taman Negara National Park
  At an estimated 130 million years old, Taman Negara is the oldest tropical rain forest in the world and   largest in Malaysia. Trekking, night safaris, fishing are the popular activities here, but the most             famous is the highest and longest Canopy walkway in the world.

The Kuala Lumpur tower
This 421 meter tower is one of the main attraction in Kuala Lumpur.
One can easily reach to the upper area of this tower which is mounted with binoculars all over the observation desk. The panoramic view of the city is just mind-blowing. Once you are at the top of the tower you feel like standing above the clouds touching the sky.



5. Royal Selangor, the brand icon of Malaysia
