Malaysia Trip Day 8~ The Last Day

On the last day, I had until around 8:30pm to goof around and see even more of the city. I spent the night in a comfortable bed (the bed in the private room was so uncomfortable, but the bed in the dorms were much nicer!) and slept soundly.

The first sight I saw was the National Monument, which is located close to the Lake Gardens in KL. It was designed by the same person who created Iwo Jima and is the worlds largest freestanding bronze sculpture.



The Lake Gardens themselves are very scenic and it's hard to believe its right in the middle of a huge city. I saw the hibiscius and orchid gardens, which were very pretty and the smells, oh, it smelled so great! The hibiscius is the national flower and wow, so gorgeous!



These are some orchids that were for sale in the Orchid Garden:



In the Lake Gardens, there is also a bird park. It is the worlds largest free-flight bird park. It is 3.2 hectares and there are about 2000 birds roaming about freely. I spent about 3 hours there! It was a lot of fun and I couldn't believe the amount of birds. Here are some of my favorite pictures:



I'd probably be pretty pissed too if I had this on my head:





This bird wanted some of my sandwich



Here's some birds sunning themselves:



It was a great end to a wonderful vacation, one I'm sure to never forget! ^^
