Kuala Lumpur

Kuala Lumpur is a city you must visit on your next solo trip. Like other popular tourist destinations in Southeast Asia like Bangkok and Singapore, the city is well known for its fantastic tourism industry. It is a city rich in culture, home to amazing works of art and distinctive regional crafts.

The city is among the best places for solo shopping trips, particularly in the Bukit Bintang district. Several shopping centers and luxury stores are located in the area. Monkeys are common in Kuala Lumpur and are one of the city's most famous attractions. You have to try some of the street food while you're here; it's so cheap you won't have to keep track of your expenditures, just be careful of the monkeys!

There are literally thousands of hotels to choose from, and the cost of lodging is also quite low. You can get a room at the clean, modern Summer Suites Residences for less than $20 a night.
