Kuala Lumpur

I was in KL from 10th to 16th of Feb. I was there to attend the Unified Messaging Voive Ignite session by Microsoft.
Also, KL was rocking as Chinese new year celebration was going on. Diggerent shades and hues of red were everywhere. Chinese dance, music, food and lot more. Not to forget the unique Chinese Dragon Dance.
I visited Petronas Twin towers, Geting, Batu caves, Aquaria KLCC, China Town and a few malls. KL is not very costley city. I felt as if I am in a clean city of Tamil Nadu with a lot of foreinger tourists :).
Most of the taxi drivers are friendly and they usually do not demand too much. Also bargaining is open. One can catch the fast train from the airport to the city central and then catch the taxi to the hotel.
I stayed at hotel Mid Valley, which is a good business hotel. The cost was around 180 MYR for double bed with breakfast.
