Malaysia
Malaysia is a multicultural crossroads where Malay, Chinese, Indian and indigenous traditions meet across a peninsula and the wild jungles of Borneo. Kuala Lumpur's skyline sits a short flight from ancient rainforest, colonial hill stations and some of the world's best diving — with a food scene shaped by every culture that has settled here.
