KL's Chinatown is a bustling and colourful street of shops, restaurant and hawkers stalls. Aside from the popular shopping district of Petaling Street, the nearby buildings, clan houses and temple contain evidences of City's built heritage. Address: Jalan Petaling

A short tip this time, providing enough informationt though.
From PUDU RAYA ( the bus-stop area ) it's only a 5 minute walk to Chinatown. Can't miss it.
Chinatown is a nice place to have a drink, eat some traditional food and above all, buy fake t-shirts, shoes, souvenirs and many many many pirated cd's and dvd's.
It's definitely worth a visit, just walking around the area is a nice thing to do. Leave a Comment Address: Chinatown, near PUDU RAYA bus-stopDirections: with the 7/11 in your back, cross the street and walk straight. and straight, and straight. That's it.

China Town night market - great fun!
Just ask the taxi driver to take you to the night market, he'll know where you mean.
Buy anything from a fake Rolex or Tag to fake Nike Trainers!
Remember to haggle for everything, but not too much after all these guys are trying to scratch a living so don't play too hard.
This is a great place to see some wonderful people, they are on a whole friendly and welcoming. Even though we didn't buy from some of them they seemed genuinelly happy to talk to us and ask where we going and what we thought of their wonderful country.
Keep your wits about you, we felt a bit on edge to start with as like anywhere pick-pockets roam this area. As long as your not too flash with the cash and keep it secure, you'll be fine.
The food hall is a great place to visit - plenty of hawker stands and new food to try.
Top Tip - Keep plenty of empty luggage so you can take your new 'designer' gear home with you!

China town markets are for you if you like shopping. Unfortunately like everywhere in the world the globalization monster has taken its bite. Mostly what is on sale in Chinatown is knock offs, shoes and copied DVDs. I'm not saying this doesnt appeal to the shopper in me only that don't go there expecting to find a slice of Chinese culture. But you will get a great pair of shoes really cheap! Address: Petaling Street

Chinatown in KL is located in the vicinity of Jalan Petaling, Jalan Sultan, Jalan Hang Lekir, and the surrounding area. The place is busier in the evening when the stalls start filling up the street. Watch out for cars when walking on Petaling street during the day as it is not closed to traffic. It is closed to traffic in the evening (from 6pm i think).
It is the place to buy DVDs and branded clothing and bags. Of course they are pirated version. For foreigner, you have to bargain hard with the vendors. A trip to Chinatown won't be complete without trying some of the local street food.
There are a few budget hotels in the area. Don't expect any 5 stars hotel here. Leave a Comment Address: Petaling StreetDirections: Closest LRT station is Putra Line, Central Market Station.

I have sepnd four months in Kuala Lumpur. I have experienced many taxi drivers will charge you 5 to 6 times more than actual rent if you are not a local person. Please do not carry valuables, more cash, your passport or other travel documents as Kuala Lumpur and other parts of Malaysia are full of thieves.. In case if you come across police do not ask me what sort of real bad guys they are .
