DirectRooms.com can announce that June 5th 2010 will bring the annual celebrations of the Malaysian King's birthday into full swing. Offering the opportunity to not only enjoy the show-stopping spectacular which is put on for the King, but also for individuals to experience and learn some of Malaysia's most important historical and cultural background.

Held on the first Saturday of June regardless of the current King's actual birthday, the festivities are held in the capital of Kuala Lumpur and signify a national holiday for the country. Whilst an enthralling show is put on by the Malaysian Armed Forces as a sign of their continued allegiance to the King, His Majesty publishes an honours list, bestowing titles upon distinguished individuals of the public.

Currently ruled by Sultan Mizan Zainal Abidin, the 13th ruler, visitors to the city are likely to find the streets awash with celebratory parties, with locals in an exuberant mood as they participate in the festival, which includes street performances, exhibitions and cultural shows. Such is the popularity of the event that visitors wishing to visit the Malaysian capital should ensure that they book with Kuala Lumpur hotels early enough to avoid disappointment. With such an important day in the Malaysian calendar, any visitors to the country are likely to experience a very special, once in a life time event.
