Contradictheory: A Kuala Lumpur itinerary for locals


Sometimes, it takes seeing our home through someone else’s eyes to truly appreciate its beauty. — IZZRAFIQ ALIAS/The Star

How would you design an itinerary for somebody visiting Kuala Lumpur? Perhaps the most obvious way is to take all your favourite places, mush them together into a rough list of “you need to be here on that day”, and use it as a rough guide. Or you take a pre-existing list and tweak it to suit your needs. Or you just go out slightly blind, yet open to new sensory experiences.

A friend was going to spend Chinese New Year week in KL, but when I asked them, "What would you like to see or do?" their answer was so broad it might as well have been "anything".
