Often referred to as simply “KL” by locals, Kuala Lumpur can be a great place for expats, especially with the InterNations community helping you to make the most of your experience!

Do you want to continue with your hobbies — or discover new ones — while living in Kuala Lumpur? There’s a variety of InterNations Groups you can join, including everything from sightseeing to hiking. These are run by dedicated Consuls with at least one activity each month, such as dinners in Kuala Lumpur’s finest restaurants or outings with other expats to explore all that the Malaysian capital has to offer, from Istana Budaya, the beautiful national theater building in the traditional shopping district of Tuanku Abdul Rahman, to Thean Hou Temple, one of the oldest and largest Buddhist temples in Southeast Asia, which offers a majestic view of the city, and much more.
