  • Nightlife Spot: Centrepoint Shopping Mall...

    I live in an area called Bandar Utama, the nearest to my place (within walking distance - 5 minutes) is this nice complex called Centrepoint.
    It's lively on the ground floor with eating options like local foods, pizzas, Indonesians, Thailands...very nice !
    The photo was taken on one rainy night, you could even see puddles on the floor; the colourful ambience of this place !

    Now, this photo was taken on the same rainy night...On the outside of the complex. Not many people hanging about because of the drizzling rain; Normally you could see young people singing their 'hip-hop' songs (badly), drinking their beers & the motorcycle girls loitering the place ready to be picked up !

    Dress Code: Join them, talk about the weather ! The motorcylcle girls would love that very much ! Of course they would ask you back "Is it also raining in your area ?".
    Well, you have to take them to your area, just to answer their question.

    I went out again at night, as you could see from the date imprints on ALL the photos down below; the photos traces my walking 'journey' from where I got off from the taxi !
    The sight was captured next to the Central Market. There's a river, running through, separating the Central Market & Dayabumi.
    Look at the flowing river ! Strong current there as it was the rainy season this times of the year ! This year, it has been raining everyday day & every evening !
    Taking the photo I was really hoping that it would not rain on that night !

  • The other side of Central Market, we could see lines of food stalls...
    Some couples sitting down, digesting the foods as it was during the 'Fasting Month' when I was capturing this photo.
    During the day, this area would be filled with street musicians, playing songs, citing poetries & some magicians 'selling' their tricks !

    Chinatown: The Chinatown in KL !...

  • Near Chinatown in KL...

  • Nightlife Spot: Chinatown

    Slowly, I walked to Chinatown. A busy area where people & vehicles 'jam' each other out.
    On the photo, try to challenge yourself crossing the road with all those heavy vehicles or you could take the overhead bridge which is better, of course...

  • Nightlife Spot: Chinatown

    Inside Chinatown, it's busy with people, that's for sure ! Sellers & buyers alike...If you are in Kuala Lumpur, which I would prefer to call KL; A VISIT to the Chinatown is A MUST !
    You could see all the items that Malaysians, even tourists love to buy.
    This area is full of stalls, most are 'pirated' stuffs (not originals) with good values (if not great...) & at very very affordable prices !
    BARGAIN IS A MUST !

  • Nightlife Spot: Chinatown

    While browsing through the stuffs in life that you fancy buying, make sure your wallets & handbags are intact to your body ! I personally never heard of bag snatchers in this area but people are walking close to one another & sometimes like trafiic jams in KL itself, it's quite annoying ! Though I like it this way...because I could yell at people to just walk on if they stop for a while (sometimes minutes...) if they bump into long lost friends & fancy some chatting instead...in the middle of 'human traffics'...

    Chinatown: Inside Chinatown...

  • Pagoda & tripod buying in Central
  • Market, in KL
  • by coceng
  • Send Photo to a Friend
  • Nightlife Spot: Chinatown

    This is a Pagoda stalls that I managed to capture...
    In the Chinatown or rather walking through the area, you could see stalls lined up on the left & right as you walking through.
    Whereas behind these stalls, there are shops also, with more stuffs to browse through & BARGAIN for.
    On that night, I wanted to but a tripod, thought I would have one for my night photos.
    I asked for USD 7 for a long tripod, but was told that I couldn't get it less than USD 12 anywhere in Central Market ! I walked off...
    The original price of the tripod is actually USD 24, if you buy at 'high-end' establishments...
    You have a choice in bargaining of course, put your prices down if they want to accept, take it right away, if they don't you could either move to some other stalls.
    Be reasonable of course when putting prices; There are certain things that you could never get for less than certain prices in this world !
    I ended up NOT buying anything, I could wait I guess...

    Chinatown: End Of Chinatown...
  • Tip Rating:
  • Kuala Lumpur Chinatown
  • The last end of Chinatown, in KL
  • by coceng
  • Send Photo to a Friend
  • Nightlife Spot: Chinatown

    The photo was taken at the last end of Chinatown with Bargaining Stalls.
    I owe some parts of my life to Chinatown ! I bought many things which normally are not easily available in Malaysia in Chinatown.
    All those porn VCDs from France, Spain, Germany, where I learned so much of dirty words & everyday conversations in those countries, in Chinatown !
    Even UNCENSORED movies like Beautiful Life, Cinema Paradiso, Malena, Caligula, Saturday Night Fever, Grease, Blue Lagoon, Blair Witch, ETC...I got from Chinatown ! I got Matrix Revolution on VCD, on the same day the movie was shown in the USA !
    I bought all those T-Shirts that I gave to friends when I travel from Chinatown !
    I brought friends to sample some local stall foods in Chinatown...lots of things in life for me, started in Chinatown.
    Slowly, the 'pirated' stuffs are decreasing in Chinatown...but ask around, you might get what you look for in here...

    Chinatown: Eating Out...
  • Tip Rating:
  • Kuala Lumpur Chinatown
  • Eating out in Chinatown, in KL
  • by coceng
  • Send Photo to a Friend
  • Nightlife Spot: Chinatown

    Now let's take a look of some eating restaurants around Chinatown. There are many to choose from. Mostly Chinese cuisines, from cheap to distortedly expensive plates could be found here. Choose wisely.
    The layouts are simple; Set up tables & chairs in front on the restaurants, blocking traffics nevermind.
    If you feel that you don't want to be disturbed (cars honing at you, motorcycles side mirrors bump into your head/back & such like...) while chewing those meatballs, get a seat inside the restaurants...
    Just enjoy the foods & the sights around you.
