Kuala Lumpur is a bargain
hunter's paradise offering a wide variety of goods
for the avid shopper, ranging from oriental art
objects, and curios to local handicraft items,
designer fashion, shoes and handbags leather
goods, cameras and photographic equipment,
electrical and electronic goods.
There is the air-conditioned
comfort of modern shopping complexes, quaint
little shops and bustling night markets, each
providing its own unique shopping experience.
Credit cards and travellers cheques
are accepted at larger establishments while most
banks readily accept foreign currencies like the
US Dollar, Pound Sterling, Yen, Deustchmark and
Franc to be exchanged into Ringgit Malaysia.
Although prices at the bigger
stores are generally fixed, do not hesitate to ask
for discounts. But the real fun to shopping is at
the smaller shops and roadside stalls where
bargaining is still very much in vogue and where
verbal skills and a poker face may help to bring
prices down drastically.
MAJOR SHOPPING AREAS IN KUALA LUMPUR
Jalan Bukit Bintang
Located within the Golden Triangle, Jalan Bukit
Bintang was once th toast of Kuala Lumpur's
nightllfe. It was the home of BB Park, with
curious mix of cabarets, merry-go-rounds, ferris
wheel, and the like. Today it has been replaced by
modern shopping complexes, internation standard
hotels and commercial banks, all within walking
distance of on another.
Jalan Tuanku Abdul Rahman
Its gracious pre-war facades now vie for attention
with new establishments of more modern
architecture. But the older establishments have
somehow survived the competition and managed to
hold their own. A good place to begin hunting for
oriental antiques, curios and carpets. It is also
famous for its imported fabrics, batik sarongs,
saree Indian ethnic goods, leather goods and
menswear and suitings.
Chinatown
Petaling Street - KL's very own Chinatown is a
beehive of sound and activities. Pre-war shops and
open-air roadside stalls teem with shopper in
search of bargains ranging from dresses and shoes
to fabrics, costume jewellery, dried and pickled
foodstuffs, fruits and herbal remedies. Baskets
and bouquets of fresh flowers make a refreshing
sight amid the bustle and noisy din of haggling
over prices. Nepalese traders spread out their
mats along narrow five-foot ways, offering
brightly coloured trinkets, wall hangings,
teapots, curios and ornaments from India and
Burma.
Central Market
The Central Market (Pasar Budaya) once housed the
wet market fc central Kuala Lumpur. After
extensive conEervation efforts, it now stand
proudly as a centre for handicrafts, souvenirs and
curios items. It is als a centre for local artists
who paint portraits, T-shirts, personalised card
plaques and plates. Regular cultural performances
are held at th outdoor stage. Central Square, just
next door, houses speciality shop offering
souvenirs, gifts and paintings.
Pasar Malam
The Pasar Malam or night markets offer yet another
fascinating insight into Malaysia and its people.
Open-air stalls sprout up in the later part of the
evening and within minutes the whole street is
transformed into a fascinating bazaar with loud
music and bright lights. Amidst the hustle and
bustle, shoppers may find clothes, batik,
handicraft, household item and a variety of
foodstuff and local cakes. The Petaling Street
night market comes alive each evening after six
while the night market along Jalan Tuanku Abdul
Rahman is a once-a-week affair every Saturday
evening after six.
Pasar Tani

market for agriculture produce from the nearby
rural areas. It offers a wide range of fresh

fermented glutinuous rice or tapioca) and a
variety of local Malay cakes an sweets at the
Pasar Tani Jalan Ipoh.

malaysiaONE : Kuala Lumpur : Food
TOP
|
|
Eating out in Kuala Lumpur,
as is the same in all parts of Malaysia, is a real
gastronomical adventure - a treat for your
tastebuds. Owing to the multi-racial composition
of its populace and their individual cultures,
Kuala Lumpur has evolved into a gourmet's paradise
with its wide variety of Malay, Chinese and Indian
food - each characterised by their distinctly
unique aroma and flavours.
The cosmopolitan crowd demanded
their own brand of cooking - hence the appearance
of numerous Thai, Japanese, Korean, Western
Continental restaurants, adding yet another
dimension to the Kuala Lumpur gastronomic scene.
Fast food outlets are popular among
children while the more sophisticated crowd might
prefer the lavish opulence of formal dining.

|
·
Jl. Alor - Located one block parallel to Jalan Bukit
Bintang/Lot 10. At night, this area hosts the greatest combination of
Chinese food in town. Prices are high and the area is a bit run down but
the food is nice.
As always, it's best to try to bring about RM100 into the
country. Because of recent exchange controls, the only way to get ringgit
outside the country is basically to trade with fellow travelers. If you
can't, exchanging at point of entry should be done in minimal amounts
only. In KL, the best place to change your money is with authorized money
changers, thereby avoiding the stamp fee usually charged by banks.
Reputable money dealers can be found in the Masjid India area in
particular, as well as most places along Jalan Silang near Chinatown. It
is advised not to use unauthorized dealers. If you need an
international bank, Standard Chartered and HSBC both have branches near
Masjid Jamek LRT while Citibank is located outside the Ampang Park PUTRA
LRT station.

KL is a safe city. The only places to really watch out are
Puduraya bus station and the Chow Kit area, particularly at night. But for
the most part, you should be ok and most people speak English in case you
run into problems
·
Petronas Towers and Kuala Lumpur City
Center - Jalan Ampang - World's tallest building and a new
shopping complex right in the heart of the city. Take the PUTRA LRT to
KLCC station.
·
Masjid Jamek/Court Buildings/Dataran
Merdeka -
The court buildings are quite interesting architecturally and have
traditionally been THE symbol of KL. The flagpole is also the world's
tallest. Located right near the Central Market.
·
KL Tower - Near Jl. Sultan Ismail. One of
the world's largest freestanding structures. RM8 buys you a nice view of
KL and environs when there's not too much haze. Not far from Dang Wangi
LRT station or you can take buses to Lot 10 and get down at The Weld.
·
KL Railway Station (Kotaraya) - A bizarre
blend of colonial and Moorish architecture near the Central Market.
Not to be confused with KL Sentral, this was the old terminal for trains
until March, 2001 and is now used solely for commuter train service.
·
National Sports Complex (Take STAR rail
system to Bukit Jalil Stn.) - Built specifically for the Commonwealth
Games. There are often various kinds of sales and exhibitions there.
·
Central Market - Recently transformed into
a tourist market offering handicrafts from throughout the country at
grossly inflated prices. Be prepared to bargain. Makes a good stop if you
don't have an opportunity to visit Kota Bahru or Sarawak, where most of
these items can be bought far cheaper.
·
 Petaling Street - An enormous Chinese
night market that's a big hit with most short-term tourists. Central
Market shopping rules apply here too. But for cheap t-shirts and pirated
CDs, this is one good place to go.
·
Sunway Lagoon/Sunway Pyramid (Subang -
Cityliner bus 51 from Klang Bus Stand or you can take Metrobuses to USJ
that stop on Jl. Cheng Lock across from Kotaraya) - An enormous water and
fun park located approximately 30 minutes outside of central KL. The
adjoining shopping mall has an indoor ice rink and theatres as well.
·
 Batu Caves (Buses from outside Central Market near McDonald's) - A
large cave temple famed for Hindus. Hundreds of thousands flock there for
Thaipussam every January.
·
Taman Tasik Perdana (Follow Jalan Parlimen
from Dataran Merdeka) - A large park near the city center. Also contains a
planetarium and butterfly park. The orchid park is also very highly
recommended.
To really appreciate KL's racial diversity, we
would suggest the following one-day route.
|
1
|
Start
from Kotaraya and walk to the Masjid Jamek STAR LRT station along
Jalan Tun Perak. At the left side of the station follow a small
road, Jalan Melayu. At Jalan Masjid India, turn right and walk
past all of the Muslim Indian shops selling sarees. Also
here are a few large wholesale stores selling all manner of Indian
imports at reasonable prices. The best is Mydin.
|
|
2
|
Upon
reaching Jalan Bunus Enam (Semua House), turn right and walk to Jl.
Munshi Abdullah and turn left toward the end of the street. When
you reach the junction, turn right and keep walking until you hit
Jl. Raja Abdullah. Turn left here and walk 10 minutes until you
reach an overhead bridge. At Jalan Raja Muda Musa, turn right and
walk through the arch.
|
|
3
|
This
area is Kampung Baru, a predominantly Malay area in which
many of the houses are actually built in kampung-house style. If
you walk one street further on Jl. Raja Abdullah, you reach Masjid
Kampung Baru, one of the more famous mosques in the city. If
you are there on a Friday afternoon, notice how cars are parked
everywhere as everyone is attending communal prayers at lunchtime.
|
|
4
|
From
Kampung Baru, take the PUTRA LRT to Pasar Seni station. Across
from Kotaraya complex is Chinatown, where much of the
architecture is very old. While best seen at night with the
market, vendors are still out in force during the day as well.
Alternatively, you can take bus #25 (Kampung Pandan) from the
roundabout in front of Maybank Building. Take this bus to Jl.
Pasar and Pudu Market. Pudu is a predominantly Chinese area
and all manner of stalls and electrical stores are here.

WHAT NOT TO BUY -

|
|
|
|
|
|
Fake CD's/VCD's - Lots are available in KL, especially on
Petaling Street, of the computer, music and movie varieties. C'mon guys.
It's illegal.
Drugs - This is a very serious crime in Malaysia. People have
gotten executed for this type of thing.
Televisions, Videocassettes & VCRs (North America only) -
North American and Asian picture standards tend to be different. Unless
the machine uses a universal format, you may very well find that your
inexpensive TV gives you nothing but scrambled signals when you plug it
in. Save your money.

The Mines Wonderland

mining-pool, the Mines Wonderland is an exciting theme-park with
