4 things to do while studying in ~Malaysia

Assalamualaikum...

Today I will share some best places that you all must go and not miss out when you all are choosing University ( of course IPTA) further study when you want to fin Malaysia.

1.Visit Malaysia’s capital, Kuala Lumpur

Nearest universities: University of MALAYA (UM); National University of Malaysia (UKM);
 

If you've chosen to study abroad in Malaysia for your undergraduate degree, your first point of call should be Kuala Lumpur. The capital of this small island nation consists of a vibrant mix of cultures, wealth and business. From the colour, smells and bargains in the city's Chinatown district, to the high-rise office buildings surrounding the iconic Petronas Towers, Kuala Lumpur is a city that combines the historical with the contemporary, the traditional with the innovative. Be sure to get a bird’s-eye view of the city from the Kuala Lumpur Tower, photograph the Victoria clock tower that today is the court house, and enjoy the greenery of the Merdeka Square where the English spent their evenings playing cricket during the years when Malaysia was a British colony.

2. Experience real Malaysian culture in Penang

Nearest universities: University of Science, Malaysia (USM);
 

One of Malaysia’s most popular destinations is Penang and once you’ve experienced the hustle and bustle of the region’s capital, Georgetown and the surrounding district, you’ll see why it’s such an attraction to locals and tourists alike. The best way to explore Georgetown is on board a tuk tuk. Forget the air-conditioned bus, you’ll find out much more from your guide as he pedals you around the streets, past beautiful temples, down church row, and out onto the jetties. Rather English in its appearance (unsurprisingly after 171 years of British influence on the island), Penang is the most populated state in Malaysia and is also home to Universiti Sains Malaysia (USM).

3. Malaysian festivals

Nearest universities: University of MALAYA (UM); National University of Malaysia (UKM); University of Science, Malaysia (USM); University of Technology, Malaysia (UTM); Putra University, Malaysia (UPM)

With such a melting pot of cultures in Malaysia, there’s no shortage of festivals taking place – in fact, study abroad in this part of the world and there are festivals taking place all year round. From Chinese New Year to Deepavali (the Hindu Festival of Light), Thaiponggal  (a Malaysian harvest festival), to international dragon boat racing – these cultures are known for their colour, their love of life, their passion and their celebrations. Get caught up in the crowd, revel in the atmosphere and enjoy this added experience of studying abroad.

 4. Taman Negara National Park

Nearest universities: University of MALAYA (UM); National University of Malaysia (UKM); 
 

Malaysia’s top two universities are situated in Kuala Lumpur so much of your time studying abroad is likely to be spent in this concrete jungle. However, there are plenty of places to escape the city, and Taman Negara National Park, with its 4,000 square kilometres of forest, may be exactly what you’re looking for. Among the plentiful varieties of flora and fauna, you may also come across exotic animals such as elephants and tigers, but you might want to be on a guided tour before encountering those! Spend a night under the stars as part of a safari, or if you’re between semesters, why not spend a week in the bush – a nine-day trek will get you to the top of Gunung Taha, the highest mountain on the Malaysian Peninsular.
