Thanks for your nice comments Somit :-)
Hmmmmm....back to your question "Not to be missed things" in KL......well, there are so many actually but I would only give my Top 10 list....can't speak for others though as different people might have different interests....
1. KLCC - This massive project includes the 88-storey Petronas Twin Towers and Suria KLCC Shopping Mall. A few other attractions are housed here: the Petronas Philharmonic Concert Hall, Petronas Art Gallery and Petrosains (Discovery Centre). The towers are linked by a sky bridge, which is open to visitors from Tuesday to Sundays, 8.30am-5.00pm.
2. KL Tower - Get bird's eye view of the city from this forth tallest concrete tower in the world, or dine at its stylish Revolving Restaurant.
3. Sultan Abdul Samad Building - Constructed in 1897, the building is reminiscent of London's Big Ben but with Moorish influences. It once housed the Colonial Secretariat Offices, but is now home to the Supreme and High Courts of Malaysia. Merdeka (Independence) Square is located here.
4. Genting Skyway - Take a relaxing, scenic ride up to Genting Highland on skyway cable car from the Gotong Jaya Station. The Awana Genting Skyway provide breathtaking views of the surrounding hills at a comfortable speed that will get you to the top of the hill where Genting City of Entertainment is. The cable car is claimed to be the fastest in the world and longest in South East Asia. Check this out at http://www.genting.com.my
5. Bintang Walk - This lively street, in the very heart of Kuala Lumpur's Golden Triangle is a shopper's paradise.
6. Sunway Lagoon Resort - Experience adventure and excitement all in one place. More info at http://www.sunwaylagoon.com.my
7. Chinatown - It is also called Petaling Street is a good place for fantastic bargains.
8. Central Market - you can find beautiful Malaysian arts and handicrafts here.
9. National Museum - interesting info on the history and culture of Malaysia can be found here.
10. The Heritage Street (next to Sheraton Imperial Hotel) is where the fun and trendy pubs are located. Another happening place that I would suggest is the award winning Luna Bar. Rum Jungle is a pretty cool place for a drink too.
Of course you must also sample a good variety and delicious local food here. Yong tau foo, satay, char kueh teow, roti John, rendang daging, nasi lemak are some of the local dishes not to be missed !!!

Cheers!
