deck is over 100m higher than the Petronas

Towers’ skybridge.

A free shuttle bus (every 15 min; h9am-9.30pm)

runs to the tower from the gate on Jln

Punchak opposite the PanGlobal building.

Alternatively, get a workout climbing the

short nature trails that run through the for-

est reserve, which you can explore alone

or on a free guided tour starting from the

entrance to the tower at 11am, 12.30pm,

2.30pm and 4.30pm daily and lasting about

45 minutes.

Formerly the world’s tallest skyscrapers

(until Taipei 101 took the title in 2004), the

twin Petronas Towers (Map p444 ; http://www.petronas.com

.my/petronas; Jln Ampang; admission free; h9am-1pm &

2.30-7pm Tue-Sun) serve as the elegant headquar-

ters of the national petroleum company. This

steel-and-glass monument weaves together

traditional Islamic symbolism with modern

sophistication. First-come, first-serve tick-

ets are available for visiting the 41st-floor

Skybridge that connects the two towers; tick-

ets are issued from 8.30am and 15-minute

visits start at 10am. Arrive around 8am to

start queuing if you’re particular about the

time you want to go up, but tickets are often

available until around 11am.

To get here, take the Putra LRT to KLCC

station.
