The Petronas Twin Towers




雙峰塔英語Petronas Twin Towers,Kuala Lumpur City Centre,KLCC)別稱佩重納斯大廈
國家石油大廈國油雙塔雙子塔等,是兩棟位於馬來西亞吉隆坡市中心的摩天大樓
曾經是世界最高的摩天大樓,直到2003年10月17日被位於台灣台北台北101超越,
但仍是目前世界最高的雙棟大樓,也是世界第五高的大樓,樓高452米,共地上88層,
美國建築設計師西薩·佩里Cesar Pelli)所設計的大樓表面大量使用了不銹鋼玻璃等材質,
並輔以伊斯蘭藝術風格的造型,反映出馬來西亞的伊斯蘭文化傳統。
雙峰塔與鄰近的吉隆坡塔同為吉隆坡的知名地標及象徵。

根據高層建築暨都市集居委員會CTBUH)在1997年7月10日所宣佈的四種高樓評定標準:
「結構體或建築頂部高度」、「最高的使用樓層高度」、「屋頂高度」及「天線高度」,
一般認為最高的建築排名是指結構體或建築頂部高度而言。
馬來西亞國家石油公司(Petronas)建造了世界最高大廈。雖然其它大廈譬如西爾斯大樓有更高的
可使用樓地板,一個更高的天線,和一個更高的屋頂。但一般認為最高的摩天大樓是
擁有452米(1483 英尺)的尖頂的雙峰塔──直至被臺北101超越。

克萊斯勒大廈被認為是首度使用尖頂以增加超高層建築物高度的例子。克萊斯勒大廈
曼哈頓銀行大廈同時興建,克萊斯勒大廈在接近完工時,升起了秘密架設的尖頂,
大幅超越曼哈頓銀行大廈的高度。

he Petronas Towers (Malay: Menara Petronas, also known as the Petronas Twin Towers 
or Menara Berkembar Petronas in Malay) are skyscrapers and twin towers in Kuala LumpurMalaysia
According to the CTBUH's official definition and ranking, they were the tallest buildings in the world from 1998 to 2004
 until surpassed by Taipei 101, but remain the tallest twin buildings in the world ever built, surpassing 
the World Trade Center. The building is the landmark of Kuala Lumpur with nearby Kuala Lumpur Tower.


The Petronas Towers were the tallest buildings in the world for six years, until Taipei 101 was completed in 2004.
The height of the towers is measured to the top of their structural components such as spires, but do not include
antennas. Spires are considered actual integral parts of the architectural design of buildings, to which changes
would substantially change the appearance and design of the building, whereas antennas may be added or
removed without such consequences. The Petronas Towers still remain the tallest twin buildings in the world.

Willis Tower (formerly Sears Tower) and the World Trade Center towers were each constructed with 110 
occupied floors – 22 more than the 88 floors of the Petronas Towers. Willis Tower’s tallest antenna is 75.41 m
(247.4 ft) taller than those of the Petronas Towers, however, in accordance with CTBUH regulations and
guidelines, the antennas of Willis Tower were not counted as part of its architectural features.
The spires on the Petronas Towers are included in the height since they are not antenna masts. 
Therefore, the Petronas Towers exceed the official height of Willis Tower by 10 m (33 ft) even though the
roof of Petronas Towers (378.6 m) is 63.4 m (208 ft) lower than the roof of Willis Tower (442 m).

    2. No need to book.
      It's free.
      But you have to arrive there early to get the tickets.

      You should visit Helsinki in winter.
      It's soooo magical. :)
