Kuala Lumpur - Malaysia
From one jungle to the next jungle, you might think. Only the scenery seems different, one is endlessly green, the other radiates from countless gray-blue-black-toned concrete-metal-glass structures or simply as skyscrapers, temples, and colonial buildings.
And there's something else that resembles it: in one, wild and deadly animals await you, in the other, it's people, cars, or buses (which can also be dangerous and deadly with the next careless step).
Of course, in one you have to bring or search for your own food, maybe even pick or hunt it yourself. In the local "Kuala Lumpur", you don't have to search, you just have to decide. You can simply find it everywhere and in abundance, an absolute dream. Lastly, the mode of transportation is also not the same. In one, you have to fight with leeches or torrential rain, while in the local jungle it's naturally easier. Whether on foot, by metro, bus, taxi, or summoned grave vehicle, you have the agony of choice. And if it gets too hot here, you quickly look for the nearest mall or "7 Eleven" store, they will provide cooling just like the many drinks you can find everywhere, here are my favorites: coconut, mango shake, or Chinese tea.
Kuala Lumpur is growing and growing and is always worth a stopover. My highlight recommendations are the many old colonial buildings, the many religious buildings or temples, whether Islamic, Christian, Chinese, Indian, or Buddhist. My tip here is the "Batu Caves" with a pure Indian feeling.
With Kuala Lumpur, I end my tour of Malaysia and look positively towards the second part of my journey this year, continuing to Sumatra - Indonesia.
