Streets of Malaysia #1

There are many streets in Malaysia. Among all the states I know Kuala Lumpur (KL) the most as I live in Kuala Lumpur. Kuala Lumpur is also known as the famous place in Malaysia and a very great place that it actually attracted lots of tourist to visit our country.


The most famous street in Kuala Lumpur is Petaling Street. Petaling Street is also known as China Town in Kuala Lumpur. Petaling Street is always so crowded. Many locals and tourists love to shop around Petaling Street as it is located at the center of the town. There are many stalls in Petaling Street, as an example there are stalls which sells food, clothing, DVDs, handbags and many others.

For your information, Petaling Street sells lots of delicious food. Tourists can find a variety of local food in Petaling Street as well. Petaling Street is famous with their curry laksa, asam laksa and porridge. Those who fancy sweet food, there is also a stalk which sells all kind of sweet soup. The prices there are reasonable too! We can actually bargain too if we think that the price are too pricey.

Due to the hot weather in Malaysia, shopping in Petaling Street during hot weathers can really make us go crazy. In a way, it still attracts tourist to drop by and have a look! Petaling Street is always so pack with tourists, even those sellers aren’t local. Most of them are foreigners but they work for the locals if I’m not mistaken.

Petaling Street is always so crowded; therefore it’s easy for pick pockets to start their activity. Therefore, we must be more alert while carrying valuable items. The environment of Petaling Street is sort of dirty. Luckily, the town council does send cleaners to keep the town clean or else it will end up becoming a dirty street.

Thus, tourist should really go down town to Petaling Street to have a look, as it is worth seeing the culture of Malaysians!
