The first morning in KL, we decided to first an overview about to give the city and went along with Benn, whom we met during our jungle trek to the Menara Kuala Lumpur, the world at 421 m altitude fourth-highest telecommunications tower. After paying the relatively expensive entrance fee, we were transported by 
high speed elevator to the 276-meter-high viewing platform and were allowed to enjoy a breathtaking view over the Malaysian capital. From the tower, which is in addition to a hill, you look like that on the famous Petronas Twin Towers down. But otherwise, with the help of the audio tour pretty much all the other sights, and marvel at the civic dimensions of correlations and first from the air. Already, I liked the city. Interestingly, at the foot of the tower planted a very large forest, in which, although situated in the heart of the city-even a few animals 
live and can do it (guided) walks ... a small green lung. From there we walked through the high-rise jungle of the Golden Triangle, the business, shopping and entertainment hub of the city accessible to look at the famous Petronas Towers, until we finally arrived at its base. That is, the better to the enormous Suria KLCC Shopping Center, which is located there. This huge shopping paradise, there is every brand business, which you can imagine, in addition to mango and Quicksilver especially Prada, Gucci, Armani and the full range of global Designer. Impressive. And of course there is the 2nd Stock also a varied food court, with Asian, Italian, Lebanese, Indian and many other specialties. I liked that of course also very good again! Of course we also talked for some time in the sacred halls shopping, this couple met a German again from the Perhentian Islands and enjoyed some donuts, before returning on foot and with the modern high-and U-Bahn system went to China Town. Since one has to queue in the morning at 8:00 clock for tickets to the Petronas Towers, this was the first tourist spot for the next day on our program. From Chinatown, we walked through the chaotic streets and winding past the Central Market 
standing between palm trees and the Masjid (Mosque) Jamek to the historical Colonial District of the city. The symbolic heart of this area is formed by the Merdeka Square, explained the Unabhaengigkeitsplatz the city, for here was (first) 1957, the independence of the nation. At 95 m highest flagpole in the world is blowing here proud, the Malaysian national flag, for there is always a slight breeze. Along the square are then also some other important buildings, like the old train station in the Islamic style, the old town hall, the St. Mary's Church and the National History Museum. Since about this time of late afternoon was an incredibly sultry heat of the city, we left our ardent city tour better from here and let us down in a large number of small cafes, where we relaxed with delicious Banana-Chocolate Cake and a nice cool iced tea. The rest of the day we left us through the bustling Chinatown and the central Petaling Street and drive past the Chinese and Indian temples and enjoyed the unique open and friendly atmosphere of the city. In the evening we decided to first look at the famous nightlife of the capital, drinking and throw-in styled clothes neugeshoppten best coffee and wine in the more stylish Frangipani Bar in the best of Chill Out and House music. The next morning we had to get up early because we wanted one of the most sought-after tickets for the Petronas Twin Towers , Grab the goods until opening of the Taipei 101 in 2004 to 451.9 m, the highest skyscraper in the world. The layout of the design is based on an 8-pointed star and each of the towers has 88 floors. So we waved our clock at 8:00 in a taxi and joined us in the already long line in the basement of the Petronas Twin Towers. After about half an hour of waiting we managed to get hold tickets for 12:15, so we had plenty of time to have breakfast first extensive and a little bit to run windows hopping before we watched a movie
about the construction of the famous building the mood. As a visitor may be concerned only with the bridge, which is in between the two towers 42nd Stock is located. Time and group size is strictly limited and everything is strictly organized .... and so we found the whole thing rather less impressive, what did the beauty of the towers but no harm. After a lunch break, we wanted the monorail (yes, KL is just as in Simpson's a monorail) over the central drive station to the Lake Gardens, but when we arrived at the station, just an incredibly powerful rainstorm went over down the city, you could not 50 meters wide broadcast. As the weather even after half an hour did not improve, our walking and picnic plan fell well into the water and we decided to still larger, Midway Mega Mall to drive me from my girlfriend already Clari, the 1 year in KL had lived, has raved. I only say: shoe-sale everywhere, and sale everywhere and on everything! Everywhere, even in our beautiful shoes size for 4 - 10 Euro ... na jealous? Later than now, we decided another package (with shoes) to send home 
what we did two days later. (Do not worry Dad, we have not bought any fakes.) Evening, we swung our then newly styled with Benn in a taxi that let us out at the famous Zouk Club again (a tip from Clari). 24 Clock before we got girls in the club and yet nothing could make us so even a drink. Finally, we are still traveling on low budgets. Everything we had but then did not pay, since invited Mr. Malaysia runner-up and his clique us for anything further. 
also very pleasant. And so we danced to the songs of the past 3 decades until the club closed at 3 clock. The next morning we slept in and took our first around noon from Benn, before we lodged another relaxing day. We had all also be fit for the next evening, at which we would miss the Ladies Night at Zouk on any account. Also this evening 
was again extremely cost-effective, Kathi had in about 15 minutes, a glass of Veuve Cliquot in the hand ... we were surprised again and remained in good spirits and up to 3 clock. Yippee, dance and celebrate at last again and sensibly. The next morning we made to ourselves, our next 10-pound package (!) To bring to the post and succeeded in the afternoon but now finally in beautiful sunshine in the Lake Gardens, near the city center. We had made that day for the Butterfly Park, which we had already heard many good things and it bothers us not that we are only half an hour before the closing of the
garden arrived there. Quickly we were amazed at the colorful butterflies, and taking lots of pictures. Short 18 clock then we moved towards the exit, there still walked around a bit, and when we were leaving the facility we had to find that the output was closed. So we went to the entrance ... closed. We were looking for doors, gates and opportunities to leave the facility, but because it is so concerned a butterfly park, a sense of this whole exhibit is to let out no butterflies ... and certainly not people ... hmm. Again not gone really well. We gave it some thought, where you could build up between the different artificial streams, plants and animals at the best a place to sleep, as Kathi have launched a last Rufversuch: "Hello Hellooooo?" And since we heard from far away outside the fence suddenly a puzzled voice. The last employee of the park were just to get it in a taxi, and had our last desperate call Moment is associated with. It took almost 10 minutes to all locks up to us once more open, apologized many times and we quickly crumbled. Grade again went well. What would also be a stupid newspaper headline was: 2 German tourists trapped in the Butterfly Park Kuala Lumpur. Well anyway, we needed to 
the first shock a bit of relaxation and decided to take a haircut with a beautiful Asian Haarwaesche. Here in Malaysia, namely one's hair washed at the site, not about the Waschebecken and you get while still eat a head and neck massage. This was by far the best Haarwaesche my life. While I only tip cutting could be persuaded, Kathi was brave and had cut a fringe. So it was freshly styled evening immediately go to a club. Our taxi driver selects the time for us RumJungle with live band and a new look and high heels, it only took a record time of 5 minutes, until we were the first drinks in hand. Again, we spent a fun evening and left the 
open-air locality only after the band had already aufgehoert play. The next day we had then once the shopping area with incredibly many malls around Jl Bukit Bintang, in particular with our beloved BB Plaza Vincci shoe store (Schuhsale!) explore, from shopping in KL before we first had enough. This evening we wanted 
actually just take a quick drink in the exclusive Luna Bar to us as a kind of culmination of our time in this phenomenal city, but it's worth coming back different. It took some time before we the Luna Bar (another tip of Clari) completely hidden and not marked on the roof of a hotel at last entered. The bar is located on the 34th Floor and therefore offers huge windows with breathtaking views over the brightly lit nightly KL and the Petronas Towers and the Menara. In the middle of the bar is a large pool and if you look through the almost non-existent roof top, lights over one of the impressive TV tower. Having the incredibly high Admission is already 2 / 3 of our money had been expended, we could not even afford another drink and it was again extremely located a European woman to be in an Asian country. Again, we had that night luckily no further expenditure, but a more pleasant evening, ending again on the dance floor of RumJungle ... at 4:00 clock .... contrary to our plans, the early going. Well. Now we had stayed another 4 hours of sleep until the next morning we leave the city with the express ... unfortunately.
