KLCC Park

Flocking with locals, KLCC Park is located at the base of Petronas Towers where you can bring some snacks and drinks while getting chill.

Nightlife

Capping the night off or the night is still young? Don't worry, Kuala Lumpur is filled with bars and clubs that comes to life at night. If you want to party all-night, better try Zouk which comes with a complimentary drink. For a chill night-out, you can try a rooftop Mojito bar named Negaba KL.
