Malaysia Travel Guides and Tips
If you ask why to visit Malaysia, then you are asking yourself the wrong question. Rather, you should be wondering why you haven’t done it yet because it really has something to offer, even the most demanding travellers. For centuries, this country has been under the sphere of all sorts of colonial influences, and you will find here a varied mix of different cultures. You will encounter Portuguese churches in Melacca, on the outskirts of Kuala Lumpur, you will see a gigantic golden statue of the Indian Devil guarding the entrance to the sacred caves of Batu, and you can admire the enormous achievements of modern architecture raging clouds in the centre of the capital.
Like raindrops, there are Chinatowns in all cities of Malaysia, and you can hardly distinguish them from real China! All this in a country where 61% of citizens claim Islam. There are also many beautiful mosques, such as Putra, which is surrounded by a lake of the same name. When you get tired of the city bustle, you can explore the unique Malay nature. Enjoy a trek in the Taman Negara National Park, or enjoy the endless fields of tea plantations in the Cameron Highlands. For relaxing, there are many beautiful islands of exotic beaches with white sand and a wall of palm trees on their edge, such as the island archipelago of Langkawi.
