The Asian pit viper keeps rodent populations in urban areas in check.

The name “Kuala Lumpur” alone conjures up many images – the iconic Petronas Twin Towers glistening in the night skyline, the cloud-piercing Merdeka 118, now the second tallest building on the planet, or the bustling shopping haven of Bukit Bintang decked in neon lights.

The smells and sights of the street food vendors are sure to tantalise tastebuds at almost every corner.
