Towering majestically over the Kuala Lumpur skyline, the Petronas Twin Towers are a marvel of engineering that once earned them the title of the Tallest Buildings in the World. In fact, they remain the world’s tallest twin towers until today! This 451.9 metre tall behemoth combines elements of Malaysia’s Islamic cultural heritage with cutting-edge building technology in its design [1]. The result is an iconic symbol of Malaysia, a must-see tourist destination complete with food, shopping, music and nature.
