Hello @Diana_umbat,

Thank you for sharing your experience. This place looks like you can spend hours in it without getting bored.

You've mentioned shopping. That immediately triggered the question in my head - did you buy something?

The Skyway Cable car reminded me of my experience from the Telefèric de Montjuïc in Barcelona. You can see the whole city from above and enjoy its beauty.

I am curious to see this new amusement park in Genting. Do you plan on visiting this place again and try out the rides?

[Diana_umbat]

@MoniDi many tourists came from all over the world visit and stayed maybe 2-3 nights there. They have hotels and apartments too at a reasonable price. As for me, I just go for a day trip as my house just 1hrs from Genting or Kuala Lumpur city.

Shopping spree- I didn't buy anything there cause I am staying in Kuala Lumpur city, i can go any of the shopping malls as i have many choices instead. Yes, they have a factory outlet and branded clothing there too.

My sister did mention to me about the skyway in Barcelona. She went with her friend and told me about her experience that the skyway in Barcelona with a beautiful view of the sea and the city. And it is much higher than Genting Skyway.

Hi @Diana_umbat,

This is such an interesting experience that you had! One day I would really like to visit Genting Highlands and feel as a local.

This year I had the chance to visit Kuala Lumpur and sight see this marvelous city for a day. One of the places that I liked the most is the Petronas Twin Tower. It is such a magnificent and imposing building. If you go on the top of it, you can see the whole capital. Here is a photo that I captured while I was there.

@TsekoV Wow, nice shot.. Did you know that they have a musical fountain there at night?

Have you got a chance to visit i-City and Sunway Lagoon while you are in Malaysia?

Maybe next time you can go further to my hometown in Sarawak or Sabah in Borneo Land.

Hey @Diana_umbat, 

Thanks for replying back. Barcelona is indeed a nice city. Have you been there? You should visit it once you have the chance.

I hope to see the Twin Towers too. I have never been in Asia and Malaysia is a good place to start from. 🙂

[Diana_umbat]

@MoniDi I have never been to Barcelona but i wish to go there someday.

Please let me know if you get a chance to come over to Malaysia. I will bring you to Twin Tower KLCC, Genting Highlands and around Kuala Lumpur City 🙂

@Diana_umbat,

Thank you for the invite. I will take it into consideration.

Until then, do share your experience from your other trips here on Connect. 🙂

[Diana_umbat]

@MoniDi I will wait for you here in Kuala Lumpur. 🙂

For sure, i will share all my favorite photos, my experience, my favorite foods, my trips here.

God bless.

Hi @Diana_umbat,

Thank you for the nice words. Honestly speaking I didn't know that there is a musical fountain at night, but if I get the chance I would definitely like to see it too.

While I visited Malaysia I only got the chance to visit Kuala Lumpur and didn't have enough time to go to other places.

Are the i-City and Sunway Lagoon a must-visit place in Malaysia?

Thank you so much for recommending your hometown. What is your favorite region there?
