Whether you are a food lover, adventure seeker, cultural explorer, history buff or nature enthusiast, travelling is your ticket to a wonderful world of discovery.
When you are on travel, every day is an adventure. There are new scenes to see, new foods to try, new people to connect, new cultures to experience and of course, new wonders to enrich your life.
Travel can make you a real storyteller
First of all, travel is so much more than just getting that perfect Instagram shot. It is all about those cherished moments and meaningful experiences that excite and inspire you.
As you cross borders and oceans, you land in foreign places and see different things straight away. Voila, your greatest stories have just begun! That is because travelling ignites storytelling, my dear!
Have you been longing for an overseas trip? Bingo! You can certainly make history come alive for you by visiting fascinating places across the region.
So, it’s finally your turn to travel… Your planning start at your fingertips. Travelling from Bandar Seri Begawan to Kuala Lumpur or Jakarta can be fun and eye-opening.
Let’s explore Kuala Lumpur for a start.
Explore the cultural mix of Kuala Lumpur
The capital city of Malaysia boasts a vibrant blend of modern skyline, cultural diversity, delicious street food, historical landmarks, and accessible green spaces.
People from all over the world come here for a number of reasons. It’s the gateway into Malaysia, which showcases the overall identity of this strategically located country. In
Knowing that food makes up an important part of any travel, so, when you are in Kuala Lumpur, feel free to savour your gastronomical fancy.
Being a melting pot of different ethnic groups, the city is likened to a food hub that serves practically anything that you can think of. The widely available Malay, Chinese and Indian dishes must be on your hunting list though.
Affordable and delicious, make sure you try Nasi Lemak (a traditional Malay food), Char Koay Teow (a popular Chinese dish), and Banana Leaf Rice (Indian origin), depending on preferences. The Nyonya food, a Malay-Chinese hybrid, is also highly recommended.
Apart from street eats, the city also houses many fine dining and high-end restaurants. There is something for everyone, rest assured.
Enjoy spectacular all-round “skyviews”
Apart from food, taking an insta shot of the iconic KLCC Petronas Twin Towers and Kuala Lumpur Tower (Menara KL) – is a must.
For a special and unforgettable thrill, get a ticket to the Sky Bridge that links the two KLCC towers with a spacious Observation Deck – for stunning and sweeping views of the city’s skyline.
To double the fun and “have the world at your feet” literally, head up to the Sky Deck of KL Tower for breathtaking 360° aerial views. That’s the icing on the cake oh yeah!
Both the KLCC and KL Tower “skyviews” are considered an experience of a lifetime that you should not miss.
Flying across South China Sea in just 2 hours and 30 minutes
Even though Brunei and Malaysia is separated by the vast South China Sea, fret not, you can cross it in just around 2 hours and 30 minutes!
Isn’t that lovely? It’s probably what you have been wanting to explore…
Hey, can you imagine, in less than three hours, not only you have landed in your chosen destination, you have also opened up a new path of discovery.
Forget about the aerial distance Bandar Seri Begawan (BWN) and Kuala Lumpur (KUL) airports, which is close to 1,500 kilometers. Just focus on your travel.
If you are thinking of travelling beyond Kuala Lumpur, for example flying via Kuala Lumpur to Bangkok, Hangzhou, Labuan Bajo, Perth, Tokyo and other destinations, you can get all that done easily and conveniently with AirAsia!
Planning a trip to Jakarta?
With a population of over 11 million people, Jakarta is definitely a megacity to explore. Therefore, an itinerary planning prior to your trip is certainly important. Well, if are planning a trip to Jakarta, make sure you make use of the MRT stations to visit nearby attractions, in addition to malls and markets – all within walking distance.
Museums, art galleries, monuments, markets and shopping malls are among the key attractions. The two must-see attractions are the Monas (the National Monument of Indonesia) and Kota Tua (the ‘Old Town’ of Jakarta with Dutch colonial history).
The Monas is the symbol of national pride, built to commemorate the struggle for Indonesian independence. Located at Merdeka Square, Central Jakarta, its significance rivals that of the Eiffel Tower in Paris. The 132-metre obelisk structure with a viewing deck on the top, is possibly the best place to take a panoramic view of the skyline of Jakarta. Monas, together with Presidential Palace and the Indonesian National History Museum, plus other attractions within Merdeka Square – serve up a good dose of sightseeing for tourists.
Kota Tua in Fatahillah Square is another top attraction. Come here to explore the Old Batavia as you travel back to the 17th century. Surrounded by Dutch colonial buildings, some of them have been transformed into museums, cafes and art galleries, Kota Tua is a perfect spot for culture lovers and Insta shots!
