Monorail: A monorail joyride

  • The trains are quite crowded on rush hours. Similar to the Sydney monorail, I'm not sure if it is of much to use to the locals because of its limited route (around the shopping district).

    I took the monorail from Bukit Bintang to Maharajalela (Chinatown night market).

    On the right side of the website, click on the transit network integration to see that it's the Putraline you should take to go to the Petronas towers (KLCC). You can click on Around Monorail Stations to get a glimpse on which hotel is near a particular train station.

    The monorail is finally finished and offers an alternative to navigating the clogged tarsealed arteries of KL. Since 1995, when I first visited, KL has become less pedestrian friendly, so the monorail and LRT make life a little easier for the city explorer. I didn't actually get a chance to use it in 2004 when I was in KL on business for a few days, but I did go up and have a look at the Bukit Bintang Station on Jalan Sultan Ismail (pictured). Fares looked reasonable from memory.

    KL remains a city built for cars, and therefore public transportation is not the best. The relatively new "metro" system consists of a mixture of ground-level trains (KTM Komuter lines), underground trains (the light railway system) and elevated trains (the monorail). Sadly, these lines are not particularly well integrated, even if some stations are located next to each other! And they don't go everywhere - indeed, some lines seem to go nowhere important! Still, the system will get you to some useful central locations, e.g. KLCC and the Bukit Bintang area with relative air-conditioned ease, and at very affordable prices (RM2 ish). The short monorail line is perhaps the most comfortable.

    Monorail: Monorail Coolness

    Monorail is cool! Apart from the fact that it is cool because it takes you fast to where you want to go, high above the ground (so you get good views), it is really COOL because of the airco. And that's very nice in KL, where even the locals ( ;-) Jen) are complaining about the temp...

    The public transportation in KL is just excellent. One reason what makes it a great city.
