Malaysia - Kuala Lumpur - Sunset over Twin Towers reflected in the lake

    The Petronas Twin Towers (also known as the Petronas Towers or Twin Towers), in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia were the world's tallest buildings, before being surpassed by the Taipei 101. However, the towers are still the tallest twin buildings and office building in the world. Tower 1 was built by Hazama Corporation and Tower 2 by Samsung Engineering & Construction and Kukdong Engineering & Construction (both of South Korea). They were the world's tallest buildings from 1998 to 2004 if measured from the level of the main entrance to the structural top.

    It is quite difficult to come with different take on such a popular city as KL surely is. This time I wanted to capture it slightly differently, however I could not stop myself from including Twin towers as well. That particular evening had a wonderful light and the sunset brought some nice colors on those clouds and the city. Unfortunately the fountain that I have captured earlier than this shot stopped working so I could not have included it into the shot as well.
