See Kuala Lumpur as you’ve never seen it before—from directly under your feet. The Skybox is made of transparent glass and sits 3000 meters up. If you can brave the height, you’ll get a spectacular 360° view of the city. A bit scary, yes, but you’ll get some awesome Instagram photos! The Skybox is located at the top of Menara Kuala Lumpur (KL Tower)
