Central Market Kuala Lumpur is a centre for Malaysian culture, art and craft located in the heart of the city. Here you can find lots of Malaysian Batik, Souvenirs, Collectibles & Handicraft.
Eat Cendol at the Central Market
I went to central market with my friend, she is craving for ABC. Well, she is not pregnant though she really want to eat that. And as for me, i prefer to eat Cendol. To put simply, I like coconut milk based dessert like Cendol. The stall is located near the entrance of the Central Market. You can eat there while looking at the tourist walking around or when you think it is time for something energy booster and cool dessert after tired walking.
Kasturi Walk
Even though, we went there to find the ABC but it also great to see the art collections like painting, craft and etc. I failed as a artist(cannot even draw an apple) but I loved to watch the beauty of arts. Look at the kite above or we called "wau bulan" it symbolized Malaysian art, culture and creativity. This reminds me when I am young at my village, there use to have competition for kite. And villagers will design beautiful Wau to participate and showcase theirs skills and creativity.
There are lots of tourist there especially during the weekend. Yeah, it is a great stop to search for local souvenir there before going back. The covered roadways above named is Kasturi Walk that featuring an exciting variety of stalls selling tantalizing local snacks and exquisite souvenirs.
How to reach Central Market
Taking LRT is the easiet way to reach there. Take train to Pasar Seni Station. Arrive at Pasar Seni you have to walk maybe about 5-6 minutes according to speed. Pasar Seni Station is located right opposite of Central Market Kuala Lumpur.
Petaling Street
From Pasar Seni you also can walk to Petaling Street. Petaling Street also one of tourist attraction that sell mostly local products. The place is just near to Central Market.
ABC
Please if you are diabetic, do not eat this or just eat red kidney bean and sweetcorn. My friends said the taste is okay. I guess her craving not satisfied because she cannot even finish the dish. Maybe also the portion quite big and you can easily feeling full.
Tourist pose
At first, we plan to act like tourist, wear like tourist, but the real tourist came to us to ask about directions. So we have to admit that our faces are to local to act like tourist.
