Central Market: A Paradise for Tourists

One of the main attractions in Kuala Lumpur, Central Market, is a cultural shopping center for tourists and even locals. This is the place people would go to if they are looking for certain exotic items, traditional clothing or souvenirs. It is located along Jalan Hang Kasturi, suitable for its purpose since Hang Kasturi is one of the five legendary warriors of Malaysia from our Malay literature work, Hikayat Hang Tuah.

How to spend RM100 and less in Kuala Lumpur

The first time I landed in Kuala Lumpur is probably about 12 years ago.  My first impression is how small I felt with all the skyscrapers. As a photography student, that feeling made me wanting to venture more. So I started to explore and take pictures of the city.

                Now that I’m married, and still living in Kuala Lumpur, I haven’t yet felt bored of talking about it. Newer buildings are built and more facilities are provided. Whenever I feel like going somewhere, I can always find somewhere to go in Kuala Lumpur.

                This city is a costly city. However, if anyone wishes to spend RM100 and less, one may follow my suggestions as a local. If this is their first time visiting Malaysia, they might need to read a bit about the country, especially when it comes to the culture, food, and the climate. Basically, Malaysia is a multiracial country, with three main races namely the Malays, Chinese, and Indians. Roughly, they can guess how multicultural Malaysians are.
