There are two sides to Malaysia: the main peninsula, and the wildlife of Malaysian Borneo, for which it’s probably best known. Many people are attracted by the opportunities to dive, visit orangutan rehabilitation centers and explore national parks in Borneo, but the mainland should not be overlooked. Kuala Lumpur is a bustling city where people of all religions live in perfect harmony. The beaches of Langkawi rival any of those found elsewhere in Southeast Asia, and the street food of Penang is unparalleled.
