Jalan Pudu Lama, Kuala Lumpur

Jalan Pudu Lama, Kuala Lumpur


Jalan Pudu Lama is a minor road in the Pudu neighbourhood of Kuala Lumpur. This winding road connects on two ends with Jalan Pudu, with a branch connecting to Persiaran Maybank.

As its name suggests, Jalan Pudu Lama is the remains of Jalan Pudu after the route of Jalan Pudu was changed so that it meets Jalan Tun Perak (when it was still known as Java Street)¹. It is not fully certain when the realignment of Jalan Pudu was made. As Jalan Pudu Lama (or Old Pudoh Road, as it was then known) was already shown on the map of 1921, the realignment of Jalan Pudu must have taken place even earlier than that.

Jalan Pudu Lama today is lined mainly with double-storey townhouses, either with a front compound, or with a five-foot way. There are a few high-rise buildings, such as Hotel Transit which has its rear facing the road. The road looks more like a backlane for much of the way. Tucked away at the end of a small lane off Jalan Pudu Lama is Gurdwara Sahib Mainduab.

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I try my best to provide you information as accurate as I can get it to be, I do apologize for any errors and for outdated information which I am unaware.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