KLCC is often described as a city within a city. It features several shopping, dining, and nightlife options, and attractions, including the Petronas Twin Towers โ€“ the tallest twin structures in the world. Bukit Bintang is recognized as Kuala Lumpurโ€™s trendiest shopping and entertainment center. The KLCC-Bukit Bintang walkway makes it easy for locals and foreigners to visit each center. The elevated walkway is roughly 1,842 feet long and 16 feet wide.

The walkway is a RM100-million project financed by Petronas as part of its social contribution program. It is also part of the Comprehensive Pedestrian Netยฌwork joint initiative between the Economic Transformation Proยฌgramโ€™s Greater Kuala Lumpur National Key Economic Area and the GTPโ€™s Urban Public Transport NKRA, which aims to improve the experience of commuting by providing better connectivity between the various public transport services.
