A Visit To The Sky Bridge

KLCC park

Yesterday, out of the blue, I had the urge to queue up at KLCC to get tickets for the Sky Bridge visit. I reached the ticket counter around 9:00a.m and there were already some people; mostly tourists standing in front of me. The queue was not long and its very orderly. When my turn comes for the tickets, I was allocated the 3:45p.m slot. I asked for 5 tickets and they promptly issued it to me.

So, after lunch, told Debbie that I had some tickets to the Sky Bridge. Together with Claudia, Maggie and Janet, 5 of us "sneaked out" from the office around 3:15p.m. Claudia drove us there and parked at KLCC.

Once we made our way there, we were ushered to a mini 3-D theater. We wore our "cool" glasses and wait for a 7 minutes long documentary about Petronas' contributions and field of work. Quite informative if you understand English. The 3-D effect is not spectacular though.

Right after the show, come the highlight of our visit. We returned the 3-D glasses and queue up at the security check point to have our bags and stuffs scanned. No drama there and we were directed into a high speed lift. Claudia commented the lift resembles the one 富贵山庄 uses! Scary! Well, it took us around 41 seconds to reach the lower deck; perched high up at 41st floor. Only this floor is open to the public while the upper deck is reserved for staffs and emergency. We were given 10minutes by the in house guide to snap photos. 10 minutes might seem short but it's just nice since we got no where to go. Took some photos while the girls clowned around.

10minutes of photo time is up and all of us made our way down using the same elevator. Once we reached 1st floor, we passed by a small gallery where some exhibit were on show. Got some brain teasers which is quite interesting. Then, I got my height measured at one of the exhibits and it showed how many times the KLCC, Sear Towers or Jin Mao (Shanghai) is taller than me. Cool!

We made our way back right after this. Don't have time to shop at Suria. We sneaked out, remember? On the way back we stop by at a makan stall at Pudu. Bought some nasi lemak, bubur cha-cha and some Taiwanese pudding for our tea break. The food is as nice as our visit to the Tallest and Longest sky bridge in the world. Malaysia Boleh!
