Petronas Twin Towers in Malaysia

The Petronas Twin Towers are twin skyscrapers in Kuala Lumpur Malaysia. The building is the landmark of Kuala Lumpur. The towers feature a double decker skybridge connecting the two towers on the 41st and 42nd floors. This skybridge is the highest 2 story bridge in the world. The skybridge is open to all visitors, but tickets are limited to about 1000 people per day.

The skybridge also acts as a safety device. In case of fire or other emergency in one tower, tenants can evacuate by crossing the skybridge to the other tower.

All main lifts are double-decker with the lower deck of the lift taking passengers to odd numbered floors and upper deck to even numbered floors. To reach an even-numbered floor from ground level, the passengers must take an escalator to the upper deck of the lift.

Tower One is fully occupied by Petronas and a number of its subsidiaries and associate companies, while the office spaces in Tower Two are mostly available for lease to other companies. A number of companies have offices in Tower Two, including Huawei Accenture, AVEVA, Al Jazeera English, Carigali Hess, Bloomberg, Boeing, IBM, Khazanahn Nasional Berhad, McKinsey & Co, TCS, HCL Technologies, Krawler, Microsoft, The Agency (a modeling company) and Reuters.
