TWIN TOWERS!
Soaring high above the Kuala Lumpur skyline, the Petronas Twin Towers were unlike anything I'd ever seen. These architectural marvels held the title of the world's tallest twin towers for years, and they definitely live up to the hype.
Getting to the towers was a breeze. The Kuala Lumpur City Centre (KLCC) area, where the towers are located, is easily accessible by public transport. I opted for the train, which dropped me right underneath the towers.
The first thing that struck me was their sheer scale. Gazing up at the gleaming skyscrapers, I couldn't help but feel dwarfed. The unique Islamic geometric design, inspired by traditional motifs, added another layer of intrigue.
But the Petronas Twin Towers are more than just a pretty sight. They're a symbol of Malaysia's modernity and progress.
If you're ever in Kuala Lumpur, visiting the Petronas Twin Towers is an absolute must. They're a true architectural marvel and a Malaysian icon.

Echoes of History🏰⛩️ Twin Towers of Kunming
#cherryblossom2024
"Echoes of History: The Twin Towers of Kunming" stand as a testament to the city's rich past and enduring spirit. Located respectively on Shulin Street and Dongsi Street, these towers are revered as part of Kunming's "Eight Scenic Spots," particularly celebrated for their mystical allure under the veils of mist and rain. 🏰⛩️ #KunmingHistory #TwinTowers
In ancient times, Yunnan was plagued by frequent floods. According to the Buddhist scripture "Tales of the Enchanted," it was believed that the Golden-winged Great Bird could subdue dragons. Hence, the towers were erected with Garudas atop, symbolizing the triumph over the malevolent dragons that brought floods to the land. 🐉🦅 #LegendsOfYunnan
The Lock Dragon Well, it is said, must pass through thirteen layers of hell to leave the underworld. These towers, weathered and aged like an old sage, gaze upon the world with eyes that have witnessed countless trials and tribulations, yet still radiate a profound sense of wisdom and resilience. 👁️🔒 #GuardiansOfKunming
Originally constructed in the early Tang Dynasty, the Changle Temple, known as the "East Temple" in its heyday, has since faded into the annals of time. However, the grandeur of these twin towers remains, representing the enduring legacy of a bygone era. 🕰️🏯 #TangDynastyLegacy
Standing tall against the horizon, the towers seem to brush against the sky, as if one could still feel the cool touch of history upon the ancient bricks. They are said to be the guiding beacons for travelers by night and the guardians for fishermen returning home at dusk. 🌌🚶♂️ #GuidingLight
Also known as the Huiguang Temple Pagoda, the temple it belonged to has long been abandoned, with only the West Tower still standing. The East Tower has been lost to time, leaving the surviving tower to bear witness to over a millennium of history from the time of the Nanzhao Kingdom. 🕍👑 #AncientWitness
Should one visit these towers at night, they would find all the niches aglow with the light of a thousand lamps, resembling a galaxy cascading down from the heavens. Such a sight would surely evoke a sense of the divine, bridging the realms of heaven and earth for all who behold it. 🌟✨ #DivineSpectacle

Fantastic Stay @Double Tree Hilton KL
Doubletree KL is my favorite Hilton property, I have stayed across different doubletree Hilton properties but this particular one happens to be my favorite.
I stayed here for 2 nights, as usual, check-in was at the executive lounge handled by the fantastic lounge manager Ms Shalinda. She assigned the beautiful King Bed Deluxe Suite for my stay. I was impressed by the room which had gorgeous views overlooking the KL city center. The room has a separate living/working area, the bathroom comes with a huge bathtub.
Executive Lounge is usually the highlight of my stay with this property, I love to seat by during the evening cocktail hour and watch the beautiful Petronas tower light up. Food and drinks at the lounge during the evening cocktail hour is also impressive, i m usually stuffed after this and wont require dinner at all.
Location: Doubletree Hilton KL seats right smack on top of the Ampang park Rapid KL station, which conveniently connects one to the whole KL. This hotel is also on top of the Intermark mall with good shopping options.
Overall: Of course this being my favorite Hilton property I will rate every stay as Fantastic :)

🗼PETRONAS TWIN TOWERS🗼
📍A signature landmark of Kuala Lumpur are the Petronas Twin Towers . They are twin set of skyscrapers in the nation of Malaysia. The Suria KLCC shopping malls situated at the foot of the towers remains one of the most popular shopping destinations in Malaysia.
📍This area is usually busy since it’s in the heart of the city . They are many locals hanging around selling things and doing photography as a ‘hustle’ because tourists comes to take photos of the twin photos in the background ‘ Instagram worthy’ . However you need a wide lens camera yo capture a good shot since the building is very tall . I had the opportunity to experience it and I got bomb photos 😁❤️.
📍Stretching out to the side of the Petronas Twin Towers is the spacious and beautifully landscaped KLCC Park which features a jogging track, walking paths, a water fountain and a wading pool for children.
📍Besides the mall and park, the Petronas Twin Towers has a host of other attractions including the Petronas Art Gallery and Kuala Lumpur Convention Centre.

Trinidad Money Machines
From where I live in Trinidad the ride was 45 mines to the town of Port of Spain. This is where Trinidad & Tobago make and print all the currency bills. Such beautiful lighting and nice colors details. This place is very beautiful and is worthy of taking a trip to visit . I very much enjoy my time seeing this building as it is something you will not find all over the world when it comes to money printing in any country. #Trinidad #twintowers

With a height of 451.9 metres, the 88-storey twin is still holding the record. You cannot help but admire this magnificent towers standing tall and proud in the KL city center where it was once the former location of the Selangor Horse Race Track.

It was design by Cesar Pelli an Argentine-American architect with the stainless steel design taking in the climate and Islamic culture of the country. The plan of the towers generated from two overlapping squares that form an octagonal star, a pattern frequently found in Islamic design.
Definitely whether it's the day view or night view of the magnificent towers, your trip will never be complete if you missed them. Welcome to Malaysia!
