Petronas Twin Towers (KLCC)

The world's tallest twin buildings dominating the KL skyline
Noteworthy for: The skybridge connecting the two towers on the 41st and 42nd floors is the world's highest two-storey bridge.

Talk of the town: In 2009, French climber Alain "Spiderman" Robert scaled the Petronas Towers with no safety equipment. The two-hour feat was Robert's third attempt at the task.
Get up-close to a world-famous icon that has come to represent Malaysia globally. They may have lost their crown as the world's tallest buildings, but with each tower standing at 452 m, the Petronas Twin Towers are still breathtaking.

These skyscrapers, which are the headquarters for the Malaysian oil and gas company Petronas, boast a skybridge that offers incredible views of the city. The vista is so impressive that queues for the 1,400 tickets handed out daily are incredibly long, so it's best to arrive before 9am to line up.
There's more to the gleaming mega-structure than its views. Lying at the foot of the towers is Suria KLCC, an upmarket shopping centre that also includes an aquarium, a science centre, and an art gallery.
