-Kuala Lumpur China Town center is Petaling Street
and the street comes to
life when the sun disappears. Flimsy
shakes are set up by sticking some pipes
together and pull some plastic over the top.
Petaling Street Kuala Lumpur is the area in
Malaysia where all "fake items" from China,
Thailand and other places are on display and
sale. Its more or less like Bangkok
Patpong
without the go-go bars. Its a ideal place to
enjoy the
busy atmosphere with a Chinese
energy aura. Since most of the items on sale
are illegal
and
police raids often the vendors became very organized.
Many of them
carry walky talky and lookouts are at
the entrance to KL Petaling Street, they give alarm
when something which looks like police is
spotted and within seconds
everything is hidden in troves and locked up,
a continuous cat and mouse game.
Along the
street are shops and
Petaling
street hotels the Petaling street market
is pulled up.
The street and side roads transforms
into a bustling somehow chaotic night
market, with plenty of restaurants and food
courts.
-Maybe the best location for a dinner are in KL
Chinatown are the open air restaurants in
front of the food courts,
just the right
place for a exotic dinner.
The food centers offer plenty of
exotic dishes and the chance to have stomach
problems afterwards are rather slim. Big
beer bottles, 0.6L are available and rather
moderately priced and before and / after
shopping is on the agenda. |
