Neighbouring Singapore and the Gulf of Thailand, Malaysia is found in Southeast Asia and is renowned for enjoying an eclectic blend of cultures, including Malay, Indian, Chinese and European, not to mention its Jalan Alor street food.

Kuala Lumpur is the nation's capital and plays host to the famous 451m tall Petronas Twin Towers, the bustling shopping district of Bukit Bintang as well as the panoramic views atop Menara Kuala Lampur. Malaysia also has its fair share of temples. The Batu Caves in Selangor are some of the most popular Hindu shrines outside of India. Serene, scenic and spiritual, this tranquil limestone hill features a series of caves, taking its name from the river which flows by. If you're thirsty for more adventure, the Perhentian Islands is the perfect stop. Covered in acres of rainforest, snorkelling and jungle backpacking are just some of the chances you'll have at seeing the exotic wildlife here.
