China Town, Kuala Lumpur


Postmarked, as far as I can tell, Subang. Dated 17 February 1987.

GW 338 China Town - Kuala Lumpur: A typical daily scene in this stretch of Petaling street, teeming with people and cars. Come evening this busy stretch of street becomes a fairyland of lights from hundreds of stalls lining both sides of the street and in the centre. Variety of goods are displayed for a bargain.

I believe Petaling Street is now a pedestrian area so it must look very different!

  5. Hi Sheila,

    Petaling Street or know as China town is well known for its diverse forms of performing businesses. It's the place that never sleeps but you may see a few people sleep there as well.
