๐ŸŽ‰ Festival Seasons

Chinese New Year (Jan/Feb), Hari Raya (varies), and Deepavali (Oct/Nov) offer cultural experiences but expect crowds and higher prices. Book well in advance during these periods.

๐Ÿ’ก Pro Tip

KL's tropical climate means it's warm year-round. Always carry an umbrella and light rain jacket, regardless of the season. Air conditioning is prevalent, so bring a light sweater for indoor spaces.

Getting Around Kuala Lumpur

๐Ÿš‡ LRT & MRT System

The most efficient way to travel. Get a Touch 'n Go card for seamless travel across all public transport. LRT covers major attractions while MRT connects to the airport. Operating hours: 6 AM - 11:30 PM daily.

๐Ÿš• Grab & Taxis

๐ŸšŒ Hop-On Hop-Off Bus

๐Ÿšถ Walking & Skybridge

Food & Culture

๐Ÿœ Must-Try Local Dishes

๐Ÿฅ Health & Medical

No special vaccinations required. Tap water is generally safe but bottled water is recommended. Pharmacies (Guardian, Watson's) are common. Private hospitals offer excellent English-speaking medical care.
