Pavilion Kuala Lumpur is a shopping mall situated along the Bukit Bintang district in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. Opened on 20 September 2007, it consists of four major components; a retail mall, an office tower, two residential and a proposed hotel.
Photo was taken on 1st of January 2010 using Canon 400D and Canon EF-S 10-22 ultra-wide lens.
It’s no surprise to see a horrible queue of people lining up for ticket at busy station like the one in Bukit Bintang. Cars are very often cramped with people too.
Even though it is not seamlessly integrated for ticketing or changing trains with other lines, KL Monorail is still one of main pulses that moves people around in the heart of the bustling city.

This shot is taken back in January 2008 when during the days when I was studying in the capital city. Inspired by London Eye, Eye on Malaysia is built in conjunction of Visit Malaysia Year 2007. It has now been relocated to Melaka later on.
And before Google Maps updates its images of the long gone Ferris wheel, it’s better to keep a snapshot of Titiwangsa Lake where Eye on Malaysia is located.
The Eye on Malaysia was a 60 metre tall portable Ferris wheel installation at Titiwangsa Lake Gardens, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.
The purpose of having the Eye on Malaysia was inspired by the London Eye
The wheel comprises 42 gondolas (including 1 VIP gondola) and was unveiled in conjunction with Visit Malaysia Year 2007 on January 6, 2007 by Malaysian Prime Minister, Datuk Seri Abdullah Ahmad Badawi.
The wheel allows visitors to experience a 360-degree panoramic view of Kuala Lumpur and over 20 kilometres of its surroundings including Kuala Lumpur Tower, Istana Budaya and Petronas Twin Towers, during a 12-minute ride.
It was relocated to Malacca on November 8, 2008.
