Exhibition of all kinds of art.
Taman Tasik Titiwangsa
Beautiful park with nice views to the city centre.
One of the most fascinating neighbourhoods of the whole city. The contrast between the charm of this unspoilt Malay quarter and the city skyscrapers only a stones throw away is what makes this place so special. The city administration has begun vacating some parts the district for more highrisers, but negotiations with the remaining kampong dwellers are still ongoing. Go there as long as the place is around!
This stretch of Jalan Tuanku Abdul Rahman, starting from Sogo and Odeon Cinema in the north, and ending at Euro Moda in the south, contains a very large collection of Kuala Lumpur's art deco colonial buildings. Check out for the pink Euro Moda building, the pink-and-yellow Aidijuma store, the green Gulati's store and the Odeon Cinema. Sadly there were reports that Odeon Cinema will be demolished for redevelopment a few years from now; however as a compromise the art-deco facade of the cinema is to be retained.; Note that there are a few more two-storey Art Deco shoplots located just across the road from Maju Junction, and adjacent to Kudu Nasi Kandar.
Some beautiful rain forest pathways.
