It's also a hangout place for youngsters and family during weekend as its easy access by public transportation such as buses, train, MRT, LRT and Grab.

As at when I have a time, I will come here with my little family to share with them the memory I had here and also to create a new memories with them. ❤️

The Central Art Square in Kuala Lumpur, also known as the Central market Kuala Lumpur Originally a fresh market when it opened in 1888, it was converted into a Malaysian arts and crafts market after 1986 It has also become a local cultural monument because of its long history When you come to Kuala Lumpur, you can arrange a half-day walk around Kuala Lumpur’s Central Arts Place and Petaling Street to feel the local culture and tradition Compared to Petaling Street, which is full of counterfeit goods, the merchandise of Central Art Place is relatively much better in texture In addition to common designs, there are also many finely crafted crafts, looking for exquisite Malaysian souvenir recommendations to stroll here. Be careful though, while we are walking down the street, some Islamic girls will suddenly come to you, reach out, it turns out they want you to give them money, after we think about it, then ignore them and leave. Asked local citizens and it turns out they are refugees, which they often do! Actually a bit shy!
