Port Klang (Kuala Lumpur)/Malaysia

25.4.2024 Port Klang

It was clear that we would have far too little time today to get to know Kuala Lumpur. Craig and I had sat down together the evening before, decided on our destinations and made bookings. Craig organised transport to and tickets for the Petronas Twin Towers. I ordered tickets for the KL Tower.

Our driver was a long time coming. He finally arrived after 10:00 a.m. in his "Alza", a vehicle made in Malaysia. The journey took about 1 1/4 hours, then Craig, his wife Anita and I got out in front of the impressive Petronas Towers.

Our arrival time matched the time frame on our ticket and we were allowed to queue for the elevator. Fellow passengers of ours had arrived three minutes late on a bus and had to wait to see if there was another opportunity to get up. Strict rules!

The first elevator took us to the "Skybridge" above the 41st floor at a height of 172 meters. After a 10-minute stop, we took another elevator to the 86th floor at a height of around 370 meters. Here you have the sensational 360-degree panoramic view and you can see both the KL Tower and the second tallest building in the world, the 678-meter-high "Merdeka 118". Unfortunately, there were no tickets available for the latter.

In the souvenir shop I bought a nice T-shirt showing the towers.

Our driver picked us up as agreed and drove us to the 421 meter high KL Tower. This television tower bears a clear resemblance to the Stuttgart television tower. The observation deck is 276 meters high and is therefore significantly higher than the Petronas Towers, which we could now look down on.

We were slowly running out of time, especially since we still had to wait a while for our pickup. Now we were grateful that we had planned a generous amount of time in advance.

On the way back we were hit by a heavy downpour that lasted for a long time and almost obscured our visibility. Despite this we reached our ship 15 minutes before the "gangway up" time. The rain had stopped and we were able to board with dry feet.

In the evening we were entertained by the acrobats Angus and Matilda, who surprisingly are two Australian men.
