Landmark  
Malaysia is a country blessed with natural, out-of-the-world beauty combined with a myriad of cultural influences that inspires the birth of a true tourist attraction. The landmarks in Malaysia signify the aesthetic expression of culture and everything about Malaysia. One of the most famous landmarks is the Batu Caves, containing brilliant rock formations, recreating the scenes of Indian mythology.

The infamous Thaipusam festival held annually here is a massive tourist attraction, drawing tourists to the mysticism of Indian culture. Besides that, the pride of Malaysia currently rests with the Petronas Twin Towers, and the KL Tower, erected in the heart of KL's commercial hub. The wonderful glimpse of the city can be witnessed and cherished from the peak of these towers.
