Eye on Malaysia was brought over to the city in 2007 when Malauysia cleberated its 50th year of nationhood. Eye on Malaysia definately brought a new perspective to the dynamic city of Kuala Lumpur.

Soaring to the height of 60 meteres above the tropical waters of Lake Titiwangsa, Eye on Malaysia is the largest portable wheel in the world and the first overhanging a lake.

The Eye on Malaysia provides stunning views across Lake Titiwangsa, all the way to Petronas Twin Towers and KL Tower. This astounding viewing wheel consists of 42 fully air-conditioned capsules, which have the capacity to carry a cosy four passenger.

We arrived at about 7 pm. Since there's gonna be a laser show on the lake at 8.00 pm, we took the ride at approximately 15 mins. to 8 pm. The ticket is RM 15 for adults and RM 8  for children. The nite view from the capsule is a breathtaking experience. As usual, Marsya being an acrophobiac (fear of height) is having a hard time in the capsule. She could barely move in there - too frightened to even stand & enjoy the view. Poor little girl......

As soon as we alight from the wheel, it's so close to 8 pm & a lot of people started to gather around the lake to watch the laser show. The show lasted for about 15 - 20 minutes which is quite ok since it's free :)
