Travelling in Malaysia

relax_malaysia_1

Climate and Clothing

Malaysia is a tropical country; the climate throughout the year remains hot and humid with temperatures ranging from 21 C to 32 C, therefore light and thin clothing is recommended.

Annual rainfall from 2,000mm to 2,500mm harmonizes the tropical sunny weather. The north-east monsoon brings quite heavy rainfall to the east coast between October and February. The season of heavy rain on the west coast lasts from September to December. Over in East Malaysia, heavy rain can be expected between the months of November to February, where average annual rainfall figures can hit 5080mm.

Holidays and Weekends

Malaysia is a country that has plenty to offer the foreign student during holidays and weekends. The major cities have great shopping venues that include retail centres and exotic markets, as well as exciting dining and entertainment options. For those with a yearning for more adventurous pursuits, watersports, jungle-trekking, mountain-climbing and many more hold myriad opportunities, while those who prefer more laid-back forms of leisure activities are sure to find these at the country’s beautiful beach and island resorts.

Here are some things you can do during your holidays or long weekends:

World’s Tallest twin towers- Petronas Towers, Kuala Lumpur

It takes all of 41 seconds to shoot up to the midpoint of Petronas Twin Towers. Tickets to the sky bridge run out fast, but it isn’t everyday that you get to feel on top of the world. Towering at 451.9m above street level, this world-renowned icon is currently the world’s tallest twin structure and fifth tallest skyscraper. The skybridge that links the two towers is also the world’s highest two-storey bridge, doubling up as a superb viewing platform. The 88-storey building features glass and steel on the outside, and a traditionally-inspired interior, reflecting Malaysia’s aspirations in moving forward while maintaining its national identity.

Shopping at BBKLCC

The BBKLCC stretch from Bukit Bintang to Kuala Lumpur City Centre, in particular, will leave you spoilt for choice with its abundant fashion, food and entertainment options. Lose yourself in the huge selection of local and international brands available across nine signature malls within the area. The shopping district is also well-connected via a covered pedestrian walkway and an efficient network of public transportation.
