Jalan Tangsi, Kuala Lumpur

Jalan Tangsi, Kuala Lumpur (8 July, 2016)


Jalan Tangsi is a minor road in Kuala Lumpur. It connects Jalan Kinabalu to Jalan Parlimen. The road is lined on one side with pre-war building in the British Regency style which at time of writing (Dec 2015), is still undergoing restoration. These buildings were constructed by tin magnate Loke Chow Kit, of which his mansion, Loke Hall, is now undergoing restoration as 10 Tangsi. Across the road is the Bank Rakyat head office.

The name tangsi means barrack, for originally the road was called Barrack Road, after the police barracks that used to be located here.¹

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I try my best to provide you information as accurate as I can get it to be, I do apologize for any errors and for outdated information which I am unaware.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