Malaysia

A Southeast Asian country spanning the Malay Peninsula and northern Borneo, rich in multicultural heritage, tropical islands, rainforest and food.

Malaysia consists of two parts: the southern Malay Peninsula, and Sabah and Sarawak in northern Borneo, separated by the South China Sea. Malays, Chinese, Indians and Borneo's Indigenous peoples live side by side, giving rise to a rich food and festival culture. Highlights include the city scenery of Kuala Lumpur, the World Heritage old towns of Penang and Melaka, islands such as Langkawi and Tioman, the tea plantations of the Cameron Highlands, Sabah's Mount Kinabalu and the diving at Semporna, and Sarawak's rainforests and caves. The climate is tropical, hot and humid all year, with monsoon seasons that differ between the east and west coasts. Kuala Lumpur International Airport is the main gateway.
