If red is your favourite colour then you need to visit this place! Thean Hou Temple is one of the oldest Chinese temple in Southeast Asia. When we first arrived I didn’t know what to expect. We went there before lunch time and we thought that it would be crowded but not at all! It was really empty and we were the only tourist there. I was thinking this place would be crowded because it is so beautiful and photogenic but for whatever reason it was so quiet there. A lot of people go here to pray so you need to be respectful and don’t disturb them. Always follow the rules when visiting temples and dress appropriately, a lot of this places have some signs telling what to wear and what you shouldn’t do but some of them don’t. Do your own research before visiting a temple and try to appreciate as much as you can 💓 #kualalumpur #malaysia #malaysiatravel #unforgettableexperiences #unforgettableexperiences#awesomepic#historicculture#maydaytrip#urbanexplorer

A prominent landmark in the heart of Kuala Lumpur; the Square commemorates the historic event that occurred there, when at the stroke of midnight on 31 August 1957, the Union Jack was lowered for the last time and Malaya became an independent nation. We took the monorail and then the metro to Merdeka Square with its beautiful buildings, the first of which we viewed was the Panggung Bandaraya (City Theatre). I suggest you visit the National Museum first to learn more about Malaysian history before you visit some places like Merdeka Square. It gives it more meaning and significance than just visiting a place and not knowing the history behind it. It is situated in front of the Sultan Abdulsamad Building and KL City gallery. #urbanexplorer #besttrip #summerdays#roadtrip

A fierce contender for the title of KL's most beautiful cafe, this new venue is blessed with the kind of old-world charm that's long been monopolised by Malacca, Ipoh & Penang. The cafe's over-the-counter tagline - 'This Must Be The Place' - might prove prophetic in a sense, though it feels tantalisingly vague, potentially referencing a panoply of pop-culture possibilities. The best thing I like about the place is the spaciousness, without too many tables and chairs cramping the whole place like so many other restaurants and cafes that tried too miserably to fill in as many people as they can, creating an uncomfortably choking environment. That sense of large space is augmented by incredibly high ceiling, with partially exposed roof (through glass of course) letting light in from one side of the roof/ceiling. The natural light coming in during the day added a beautiful glow to the look of the whole setting! #urbanexplorer #besttrip #historicculture

Central Market was once a wet market built in 1888, but has since evolved to a fascinating destination for tourists, locals, shoppers and art lovers. Also known as Pasar Seni Kuala Lumpur in Malay, some will call it an indoor flea market. The market now consists of several sections representing the biggest group of races in Malaysia, showcasing the diversity of the Malaysian cultures and traditions. Even if you are not into shopping, you can truly enjoy a heritage experience offering a wonderful visual treat and appreciation of Malaysian heritage and architecture in a glance when you step inside. Under its stunning art-deco structure, you will find more than 300 shops featuring local handicrafts, textiles, souvenirs, collectibles and restaurants. There are also many other food stalls, food court and cafes around which you can explore too. If you are lucky enough, you can even catch some performance by buskers, local performers, artists or dancers during your visit at the outdoor stage next to the entrance or Kasturi Walk. #urbanexplorer #besttrip #roadtrip

Petaling Street is a street that has transformed into traditional market that sell many kinds of souvenir and other things like women bags, foods, clothes, and others. Due to its historical value, it is regarded as a heritage site. A number of pre-war buildings have been restored and converted into vintage, quirky cafés. Besides its unique menu and delicacies, these eateries certainly deserve a feature on your Instagram feed. Petaling Street is a lively area with heavy traffic. Driving here is not recommended as parking might be an issue. Worry not, this area is easily accessible through the Hop-On Hop-Off Bus. Hop on the bus and explore the city with convenience! #urbanexplorer #besttrip #historicculture

Went to 99 Wonderland Park in selayang, a Recreational Landmark in KL owned by JL99 who spent more than RM18 million to turn the derelict retention pond into a 23 acres unique recreational park. The park adopts an “open” concept, the birds and animals can move freely without locking in the cage. You get to see swans, tortoise, ostrich, peacock, deer, parrot, meerkat, rabbit, pheasant, flamingo, snake, iguana, others farm animals. Might miss out some selected animals as it was dark and we were in a rush. I like to come in evening time because I can see the daylight and night scenery. Surprisingly, we spent more than 2 hours in this trip. Thought nothing much to see but end up such a long time walking around taking photos. #besttrip #urbanexplorer

Great place to just relax and enjoy a cuppa on a lazy afternoon, design of the 3D foam art is request-able upon ordering, I was impressed when the drinks arrived fairly quick despite ordering a complicated design. Hot chocolate was on-point, with just the right temperature and taste, and creme brulee won all of our hearts. We were pleasantly surprised to see quite a varied menu was also available . Three of us chose different dishes all were quite delicious . The artwork we came to see was made by hand with frothy milk and chocolate . Overall this is a good place for group of friends to go and enjoy the cosy environment there. #besttrip #urbanexplorer #summerdays

Everywhere you go in KL is filled with cheery colors that put you in a good mood. Whether you want to hit up Petaling Street for some shopping or trek up the stairs to Batu caves, KL has so much vibrancy and good energy to offer. Pro-tip: Haggle hard at the Petaling Street market & make sure you leave your snacks and shiny jewelry behind if you’re going to the Batu Caves because they’ll attract monkeys 🐵🐵 #urbanexplorer#leaveyourmark

This cheerful cafe is located on Chinatown's Kwai Chai Hong lane (Near Petaling Street KL).The cafe has two floors, with the upper floor that takes advantage of the heritage design, coupled with rustic white, exposed bricks and wooden flooring for that weathered, worn feel. Homey, cozy environment plus friendly service. #travelsnacks#café#tripfoodie
