1. KLCCKuala Lumpur’s eponymous city centre is a
must-visit. At the base of the iconic Petronas
Twin Towers are the Suria KLCC mall and Dewan
Filharmonik Petronas. Outside, the 20-hectare
KLCC Park cradles a mosque, musical symphony
fountains, and a playground ringed by a jogging
path. The adjacent Kuala Lumpur Convention
Centre, home of Aquaria KLCC, is a venue for
major events.
2. George TownTake a stroll or rent a bike along the well-
preserved colonial-era structures of Penang
city centre. Quaint cafes and art galleries sit
side-by-side with timeless attractions like the
Cheong Fatt Tze Mansion, Khoo Khongsi,
Fort Cornwallis, and Camera Museum.
Penang is also one of the food capitals of
the world, so try not to miss out on delicious
cendol, asam laksa and char kuay
teow when you’re here.

Planning your ASEAN trip can be overwhelming at first because there are so many ways to do it. If you don’t have an itinerary in mind yet, here are some basic tips for putting one together.
1. Do your homework. List the destinations where you want to go and divide them into two columns: the first for places you really must visit, the second for places that are good to see, but not essential. 2. Plot your route on a map. Mark your first-column cities and check if there are flights between them. If there are none, consider going through your second-column cities or major cities close to them. 3. Take time off. As there is a time limit to use the Asean Pass, choose your dates wisely. Note that there are blackout dates when the Asean Pass may not be used.4. Balance time and spending. Check not only the travel times but also the credits required for each connection. 5. Don’t rush. It’s not about how many cities you visit but the quality of your experience in each destination.
