After we did a couple of shopping spree at the outlet shops near Batu Caves (we got really good deals, by the way!), we were able to convince the driver to stop by The King's Palace for a couple of minutes.
...and he said yes!
Even from afar (we couldn't go beyond the gates), the palace was magnificent! Yup, that's the first word that came into my mind.
Surrounded by a beautiful park, green lawns and ponds the King´s Palace, Istana Negara, is the official residence of the Yang Di-Pertuan Agong, a Malay title usually translated as "Supreme Head”. You can watch the Palace from outside the main gate where the Royal Guards, dressed in white Malay as well as red British inspired uniforms, are guarding the main gate on horse and on foot. SOURCE.
The area of the palace was so huge the kids can run and run in that area. It truly was unbelievable!
I was so glad we stopped by and checked it out. It was a beautiful palace for the kids to see and appreciate in KL.
