Getting There & Away

K.L. is extremely well-serviced by air, bus and train routes. The main bus station--Puduraya--is just east of Chinatown, and services all of Peninsular Malaysia as well as Singapore and Thailand. Long-distance train journeys depart from the historic old train station, located 1km (0.6mi) from the new K.L. Sentral.

The colossal new international airport (KLIA) was opened in 1998 and boasts state-of-the-art facilities. Two terminals are linked by a shuttle service, and host all international arrivals and departures. The old airport at Subang still handles most domestic routes.
