The Petronas Towers are the dominant landmark on the Malaysian Five Ringgit bank note. The foreground building is the KL Convention Center. The Towers & The Convention Center are on opposing sides of the KLCC Gardens. Photo #5 in the gallery, shows the convention center taken from the Petronas Towers Bridge.
The double-decked Skybridge at level 41 & 42 of the Petronas Twin Towers is one of its major draws as it offers amazing views of the city. Apart from allowing tenants of the towers to move from one building to the other without having to go to ground level, the Skybridge also functions as an emergency exit route.
An interesting fact I learned on my Visit was the Sky Bridge weighs 750 Tons & is nearly 200 feet long, Looks tiny in the photos.
Set on Level 86 is Petronas Twin Towers' observation deck, where visitors can get a closeup view of the sister tower's spire as well as digital displays and exhibit of the tower's history.
