Malaysia (especially spending a long time backpacking through it) is one of the most underrated things to do in the region. The country is visited a lot but not nearly as much as other countries in Southeast Asia. From the dense urban jungle of Kuala Lumpur to the pristine beaches of the Perhentian Islands to the jungles in the interior to the delicious food, Malaysia has a ton to offer travelers.
