Menara TV tower in Kuala Lumpur

Menard TV Tower

TV tower Menara (Menara KL Tower) at a height of 421 meters is currently ranked seventh in the world among the tallest telecommunications structures, gradually giving way to newly built. At the time of construction, in 1996, it took the fifth place.

At the top of the tower, at an altitude of 276 meters above ground level, there is an observation deck with a 360-degree view, and even higher is an open observation deck (access to them is paid separately). The tower itself and the observation deck above the bridge of the famous Petronas Towers, a breathtaking view of the city from above and wonderful photos are provided to you, unless, of course, the weather deteriorates. And there is a new attraction SkyBox-a glass cube at the height of the observation deck. We recommend buying a ticket for an open observation deck, as the view and feeling there are much more exciting, and besides, it includes both platforms at once.

If your camera equipment allows, be sure to capture the tower in the dark with Illumination. For the original lighting, Menara received the nickname "Garden of light". By the way, at the bottom, at the foot of Menara, there is a small theme park of Malaysian culture.

Many tourists prefer to visit the Menara TV tower rather than the Petronas Towers, and acquaintance with the Petronas Towers is limited to photographing against their background and visiting shopping centers at the base of skyscrapers without climbing to the observation deck. Indeed, the views from Menara are better, the cost is less, and there is no such excitement as with Petronas. You can simply come here and immediately buy tickets upstairs, and you do not need to stand early in line at the ticket office or order tickets on the site a few days before visiting, as is the case with Petronas.
