petronas towers

Petronas Towers, Petronas Twin Towers
Malaysia, Kuala Lumpur
Petronas is an 88-story skyscraper. Height - 451.9 meters. Malaysian Prime Minister Mahathir Mohamad took part in the design of the skyscraper and proposed to build buildings in the "Islamic" style. Therefore, in terms of the complex, it consists of two eight-pointed stars, and the architect added semicircular ledges for stability.

It differs not only in its colossal size, but also in the complexity of its design. The area of ​​all premises of the building is 213,750 sq.m., which corresponds to the area of ​​48 football fields. The towers themselves occupy 40 hectares in the city. The Petronas Towers houses offices, exhibition and conference rooms, and an art gallery.

Well, of course, it is necessary to visit if you come. Still the heart of the city. The height of the lift is 370m, the ears in the elevator lay. First we entered on a suspension bridge connecting the towers. By the way, it has two floors. Then we went up to the 86th floor. They say that when the wind swings the amplitude of the tower up to 2m. The views from the top are interesting. Tickets were taken somewhere in an hour, I had to walk a little. There is a big mall downstairs, so it wasn't boring.

We acted as recommended by the guidebook - we arrived at about eight in the morning (especially since we lived nearby, in the "Renaissance") and took free tickets for an interesting time for us, at 17.30 - then it could start to get dark, and we also agreed on meeting with a friend who was then on a business trip in Kuala Lumpur for the fourth year. At the appointed time, a small crowd of us (20 people - the capacity of the elevator) was launched into a room on the lower floor, there are several toys there, for example, they will calculate for you how many people of your height fit into the height of the towers, a diagram of the heights of all the towers of the world; then we were given stereo glasses and showed a promotional film about how good Petronas is, how it cares about its employees and the environment, what social package, etc.

Since we had little time in Kuala Lumpur, we immediately, according to the navigator from the Element by Westin hotel, despite our fatigue, ran to the Petronas Towers. There are a lot of construction sites everywhere, everything is fenced and spoils the picture a little, but there are passages. They ran, with detours of construction sites, in 15 minutes ... They are so huge! Exactly twins! Everything glows beautifully! ) In the evening, next to the towers, in the KLCC park, we managed to see a show of dancing fountains, everything is bright and interesting, accompanied by beautiful music! Breathtaking, are we in the future? No, we are in the capital of Malaysia! ))) And in the afternoon we looked at the construction sites, and at the towers .
