exciting chapters. Yes, this only global city of Malaysia appears
blessed with colors of modernism along with rich heritage. Though
formally KL spans over an area of 244 sq kms, its plush precincts
virtually get bigger to embrace the entire world. Kuala Lumpur is
situated at the confluence of Sungai Gombak and Sungai Klang, and
probably, that's how it got its name, which literally means 'muddy
confluence' in Malay language.
