What do you need to prepare for traveling to Malaysia?

You should actually make some preparations before traveling to Malaysia. Now the editor will introduce to you some related issues. You can take a look at these when going to Malaysia to help you with your trip. Of. Visa

There are three types of Malaysian visas: eNTRI, eVISA, and sticker visa. Here is a picture so that everyone can see it more clearly.

Overall, eNTRI is the most convenient, fastest and cheapest, but it has some restrictions, such as:

Tips:

1. It needs to be a direct flight Traveling to Malay, or transiting to a few fixed countries, and entering from 9 designated international airports, and cannot go to a third country.

2. You must not have applied for eNTRI within 3 months.

Please see the picture below for details~

What I applied for at the time was eNTRI

, 179 yuan, 4 days to issue the visa, convenient, suitable for domestic direct flights , The travel time is relatively recent and those who have not been to Malay within 3 months. But it is just a separate piece of paper. If you want to collect stamps, you need to apply for a sticker signature. How to get from Kuala Lumpur Airport to the city

This question is asked the most. First of all, Kuala Lumpur Airport has two terminals, K1 and K2. AirAsia usually lands at K2. Regardless of the terminal, the method from the airport to the city is the same.

1. Airport bus: about 11 MYR. The bus location is the Ground Floor of the airport. It operates 24 hours a day. It takes about an hour to get to the city and ends at the Central Station (KL

Sentral), and then you can take the subway or take a taxi to your destination at the Central Station. Suitable for people traveling alone and not in a hurry.

2. Airport Express (KLIAEkspres)

55 MYR, it is the fastest way to travel from Kuala Lumpur International Airport to the city. It takes about 28 minutes, starting from Kuala Lumpur International Airport and ending at It’s also the Central Station (KL

Sentral), which is suitable for people who don’t have enough time. I don’t recommend it if you’re not in a hurry. The cost is too high.

3. Airport pick-up service: You can make a reservation in advance at Mafengwo. During the day, the price for three-seater is about 100, which is suitable for multi-person travel.

4. Taxi-hailing software grab: Known as the Southeast Asian version of Didi, it costs about MYR 65 from the airport to the central station.

5. Take a taxi: Go to the taxi counter to invoice and agree on the price before getting on the bus. The cost from the airport to the city is generally around MYR 90-100, and it takes about 1 hour to reach the city. There is a night fee. The cost and price are not superior to Grab, so I don’t recommend them very much. How to exchange and withdraw money

The ratio between Malaysian ringgit and RMB is about 1:1.6, which means that 1RM is equivalent to RMB 1.6. Domestic banks are currently unable to exchange ringgit in advance and can only go to the local There is a money exchange place in the airport, and the exchange rate is very bad. The exchange rate of the day was 100 RMB, which can be exchanged for almost 61 MYR. However, 100 RMB was only exchanged for 55 MYR at the airport. It is recommended to exchange less at the airport so that you can afford transportation to the city. Okay, the exchange rate in the urban area will be much better. Many people recommend Bukit Bintang, or big shopping malls will also have MONEY

CHANGER

I picked it up at an ATM, real-time The exchange rate varies depending on the individual's card-issuing bank, which charges handling fees. (Hua Xia Bank’s fee-free policy for overseas cash withdrawals has been cancelled. It seems it’s time to replace it...)

Tips:

Overall: the city center exchange rate (Chinatown , Bukit Bintang all have exchange points)gt; KLSentral exchange rategt; UnionPay cards can be used to withdraw cash at ATMsgt; airport exchange points

In addition, local Alipay is also quite common, and it can be used at 711 and duty-free shops. For credit cards, remember to use the UnionPay channel, which is more cost-effective than VISA. Luggage storage

There are places to store luggage at the airport, but where to store luggage in the city? It’s KL

Sentral, yes, it’s the Central Station, which is considered a transportation hub.

There are many red cabinets on the right hand side of the entrance on the arrivals floor. The sizes of the cabinets are different, as are the sizes of luggage that can be stored and the prices. I saved a bag at that time, which cost 20 ringgit (how expensive is it!). Automatic coin insertion, no password or key, just pass. . Brush your face. .

It is said that there are also artificial ones on the second floor, which will be much cheaper, but I was anxious and gave up after briefly looking for them. If you have more time, you can search more. . If your luggage will be stored overnight, it is recommended to ask the staff if it is okay. Public Security

Before I went there, I was really shocked when I read various travel notes about the speedsters snatching bags on the streets of Kuala Lumpur. I was so scared that I bought a pocket bag on Taobao, thinking of putting my passport, bank cards, etc. I put the items in my waist bag and carry it with me. However, my colleague who just came back from Kuala Lumpur not long ago said that it was not that exaggerated, so I did not travel with my waist bag.

Well, I feel the same way. It's not as scary as I said. As long as you don't go to the Indian area, don't stay in a remote place too late, and go back to the hotel early, there will be no problem. But to be on the safe side, don’t carry a handbag. Try to carry a backpack on your shoulders and carry the bag in front.

Some people who read travel notes said that the Malay Chinese are very indifferent and even less enthusiastic than the Malays. I don’t have this feeling. I think the Malay Chinese are quite good. Is AirAsia's 7KG hand luggage checked strictly?

A low-cost airline like AirAsia relies on selling luggage. Baggage inspection is still very strict, but it is not as strict as perverted. How should I say, generally only I will weigh my suitcase, but I don’t care about the bag. When traveling to and from Beijing and Kuala Lumpur, my bag was not asked to be weighed. In fact, it was already overweight, but the suitcase must be weighed.

When returning from K2 in Kuala Lumpur, there will be a check before the security check. The road is completely blocked, leaving only one entrance. There are scales on the ground. I have a bag in front and behind and no one cares about me (the bag in front is not very big). (big, even holding a Starbucks paper bag in my hand), but the box must be weighed, so if the box is overweight, you can put some things in the bag appropriately. In addition, if you buy luggage allowance on Taobao, it is 230 one way, which is more cost-effective than at the counter. How to choose a hotel near the Petronas Twin Towers

I stayed at the DoubleTree by Hilton, priced at 570 a night. The nearest subway is Ampang Park

The hotel lobby is located on the second floor of a shopping mall. There are all ATMs, McDonald's, 711, and restaurants downstairs in the mall, which is quite convenient. However, the Twin Towers cannot be seen from the hotel. They can only be seen from the hotel lobby. The room has a slight smell and no bathtub. After staying here, it is not very good. recommend.

Here are a few typical ones~

Pacific Regency Suites Hotel

The most cost-effective, starting from RMB370, at the foot of the Kuala Lumpur Tower, walking distance to the Petronas Twin Towers About 20 minutes.

Traders Hotel Kuala Lumpur

It has the best view of the Petronas Twin Towers. You can take a panoramic view of the Petronas Twin Towers from the guest room. The tower view room is RMB700. The hotel provides a free shuttle to KLCC, but the facilities Relatively old.

Face Hotel

Internet celebrity hotel, the infinity pool on the top floor is very cool, you can overlook the Kuala Lumpur Tower and Petronas Twin Towers, apartment hotel, price 600-1000, area 90 square meters Around, suitable for family outings. There are five-star prices but no five-star facilities. Only the infinity pool is the biggest gimmick.

Grand Hyatt Kuala Lumpur

The tower view deluxe room is around 1200, with floor-to-ceiling windows. You can see the Petronas Towers from anywhere. It is next to KLCC Park and opposite the Petronas Towers. It is not bad for money. This is the best place to stay~
