KLCC Lake of Symphony and The River Of Life Tour - Private

Thean Hou Temple is one of the oldest and largest temples in Southeast Asia. Southwest of the city, it is a popular tourist attraction and is located along Jalan Klang Lama. Overlooking the Federal highway, the six-tiered Buddhist temple is also known as the Temple of the Goddess of Heaven. Dedicated to Tian Hou, a goddess said to protect fishermen, the temple is also a shrine where many come to worship Guan Yin, the Goddess of Mercy. Built by KL’s Hainanese community in 1894, it is set on a hill and offers wonderful views of the city.

Little India Brickfields is a vastly different world than nearby Bangsar. Brickfields is Malaysia’s official Little India and used to be a simple residential neighbourhood just outside KL but was recently transformed into a wide street with Indian stores and restaurants run by the country’s Indian community. The shops here sell everything from traditional Indian goods such as saris, flower garlands, spices and Bollywood music, to local delicacies such as vadai, thosai (Indian pancakes made from fermented rice flour) and more. Since its transformation, Little India Brickfields has turned into one of KL’s trademark tourist hotspots not only because of the wares found here but for its proximity to KL Sentral station.

KLCC Park’s Lake Symphony is famous for its dazzling fountain and light show. Dozens of water jets shoot up to 42 meters, choreographed to music and colorful lights. The show usually starts around 8 PM and lasts about an hour. The park is right next to the Petronas Twin Towers, so you can enjoy amazing photos of both the fountains and the iconic towers. Nearby Suria KLCC mall is perfect if you want a quick snack or shopping while waiting.

Dataran Merdeka, or Merdeka Square, is one of Kuala Lumpur’s most historic landmarks. This open-air square is where Malaysia declared independence from British rule in 1957. The area is surrounded by colonial-era buildings, including the Sultan Abdul Samad Building, which adds to its old-world charm. It’s a popular spot for photos because of its wide open space, the iconic flagpole, and the historic architecture around it. Evening visits are particularly photogenic with lights illuminating the surrounding buildings.

Conclude your night tour with a visit to The River of Life Kuala Lumpur which has been listed in world’s top 10 Waterfront Districts by The Independent, United Kingdom’s online news portal, recently. Equipped with a Dancing Symphony Fountain, Blue Corridor, fog and lighting effects, visitors can expect a stunning visual experience when visiting this stretch of riverfront at the heart of KL. Arrive here around 9pm to catch the show which occur every 15 minutes until 10pm.
