Jalan Palestin, Kuala Lumpur

Jalan Palestin, Kuala Lumpur


Jalan Palestin is a minor road in downtown Kuala Lumpur. It is a road fragmented into three parts, and was created in September 2020 out of the former Jalan Raja Laut 1 and Jalan Bunus. The western segment of Jalan Palestin connects Jalan Raja Laut to Lorong Gombak. The middle segment is a pedestrian alley between Jalan Tuanku Abdul Rahman and Lorong Tuanku Abdul Rahman. The eastern segment is between Jalan Masjid India and Jalan Munshi Abdullah. This segment is also tiled but allows vehicular traffic.

Segments of Jalan Palestin was formerly called Jalan Bunus. Other roads in the vicinity with "Bunus" to their name was once part of a Malay settlement called Kampung Bunus, which in turn was named after a Malay leader of Mandailing descent, Jabanus a.k.a. Tok Bunus¹

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While I try my best to provide you information as accurate as I can get it to be, I do apologize for any errors and for outdated information which I am unaware.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!
