Saloma Bridge : Where Tradition Meets Modernity
With only one kilometer separating them, the Petronas Twin Towers and the Saloma Bridge are easily accessible by foot in fifteen minutes. This 69-meter bridge comes to life at night when it is illuminated. Saloma Bridge, which is adorned with the red, yellow, and blue national colors of Malaysia, is a must-see. Since the bridge is one of Kuala Lumpur’s most Instagrammable locations, take a moment during your stroll to take a few selfies.
The bridge is a great place to take pictures and selfies since it offers visitors a breathtaking view of the famous Petronas Twin Towers, which stand out against the Kuala Lumpur skyline.
Why Visit the Saloma Bridge
Despite being a gateway to some of Kuala Lumpur’s most popular tourist attractions, visitors will not immediately arrive in the city center after crossing the Saloma Bridge. The KLCC district, which is home to the Petronas Twin Towers, KLCC Park, and the Suria KLCC shopping complex, is connected to the Kampung Baru neighborhood by the bridge. Only a 7-minute drive away, Kampung Baru is a well-known destination that is renowned for its diverse array of regional cuisine. There, guests can decide to enjoy a leisurely tour to Quill City Mall and its shops.
The Saloma Bridge on the other hand, is not just great for sightseeing, but also a busy destination where joggers and cyclists can be seen to enjoy their daily exercises along the beautiful route. This bridge, a masterpiece by the renowned Danish architectural company Dissing + Weitling, and built by Malaysia’s very own UEM Edgenta Berhad, proudly showcases Malaysia’s creativity to the world.
