DAY 05: KUALA LUMPUR, MALAYSIA

From a lawless huddle of kampongs in the trackless jungle, Kuala Lumpur, the capital city has grown into a fascinating metropolis. Steel and glass towers stand side by side with graceful stone colonial buildings and mosques adorned with slender minarets.

DAY 07: PHUKET, THAILAND

Phukets importance over the past 500 years stemmed from the island's natural resources, which include tin, hardwoods and rubber.

Travellers are drawn to the island's beaches, crystalline waters, and dramatic, forested hills.
