Chinatown

Chinatown (GPS: 3.14284, 101.69686) denotes an enclave in the inner heart of Kuala Lumpur that is particularly Oriental in character. For many, the name Chinatown is synonymous with Petaling Street. While the entire Jalan Petaling is Petaling Street, that particular term often refers to the pedestrianized section, heralded on both ends by its ornate Chinese gates.

Chinatown as a whole usually encompasses the roads on both sides of Jalan Tun Tan Cheng Lock. Apart from Jalan Petaling, roads in Chinatown include Jalan Sultan, Jalan Tun HS Lee, Jalan Hang Lekir, Jalan Yap Ah Loy, Leboh Ampang, Jalan Tun Tan Siew Sin, Jalan Panggong, Lorong Panggong, Jalan Sultan Mohamed, Lorong Bandar 21 and 22, and Jalan Hang Lekiu.

About this website



Dear visitor, thank you so much for reading this page. My name is Timothy Tye and my hobby is to find out about places, write about them and share the information with you on this website. I have been writing this site since 5 January 2003. Originally (from 2003 until 2009, the site was called AsiaExplorers. I changed the name to Penang Travel Tips in 2009, even though I describe more than just Penang but everywhere I go (I often need to tell people that "Penang Travel Tips" is not just information about Penang, but information written in Penang), especially places in Malaysia and Singapore, and in all the years since 2003, I have described over 20,000 places.

While I try my best to provide you information as accurate as I can get it to be, I do apologize for any errors and for outdated information which I am unaware. Nevertheless, I hope that what I have described here will be useful to you.

To get to know me better, do follow me on Facebook!
