Some of the places to visit in Mumbai include The Prince of Wales Museum, Victorian Terminus, Gateway of India, Marine Drive, Flora Fountain and Malabar Hill.  
Kuala Lumpur is the capital city of Malaysia, boasting gleaming skyscrapers, colonial architecture, charming locals, and a myriad of natural attractions.
