The 88-storey Petronas Twin Towers, otherwise known as KLCC are the world’s tallest twin structures and were the world’s tallest buildings before being surpassed by Taipei 101.
Located in the heart of the capital city, the crown of Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia contains a complex of office buildings, conference halls, a sprawling park and an up market shopping complex.
Inspired by the geometric shape found in Islamic architecture, this gleaming mega-structure was designed by Argentinian-American architect Cesar Pelli.
They were the world’s tallest buildings from 1998 to 2004 if measured from the level of the main entrance to the structural top, the original height reference used by the US-based Council on Tall Buildings and Urban Habitat from 1969.
