Kuala Lumpur City Center refers to the commercial center located in the heart of the city that includes the Petronas Twin Towers, the Suria KLCC Shopping Mall, a park, a 5-star hotel and prime office blocks. Strategically located in the center of Kuala Lumpur, which gives rise to its name, KLCC and the areas around it are some of the main destinations for shopping, clubbing and business for both locals and internationals.
KLCC is located within the Ampang district, which is itself a prime residential and commercial area that fetches a high value in real estate. Even its history is filled with richness; Ampang was the home of the tin barons that earned a fortune from Kuala Lumpur’s mining trade. Even today, Ampang is regarded as a place for upmarket people in terms of living and spending.
Ampang is also where most of the embassies from countries such as America, the United Kingdom, France and China are located, along with a high number of expatriates living in the area. In terms of shopping, KLCC is an extremely popular area for high-class fashion and upmarket items. Many international restaurants and cafes also carpet the area, a testament to its international community. At night, Ampang and its bordering roads are popular nightspots.
