PETRONAS TOWERS & KLCC
Resembling twin silver rockets plucked from an episode of
Flash Gordon,
the Petro-
nas Towers are the perfect allegory for the meteoric rise of the city, from tin miners'
hovel to 21st-century metropolis. They are the crowning glory of Kuala Lumpur City
Centre (KLCC), which covers 40 hectares of land that was once the Selangor Turf
Club.
