2016 has been a roller coaster ride for many of us but at the end of the day, we have successfully made it through 365 days. Regardless of whether we regretted some of our actions and words in 2016, it is now all in the past and what we can do is learn from it and do better in 2017. With that note, here are 14 places in Klang Valley where you can end 2016 with a bang and ring in the new year.
