Having been to India, walking up and down the main street certainly felt like the real India.
The smells, the spices, the clothing and the people.
There didn't seem to be a lot of tourists, but that could be that it was the wet season when we visited.
We took the train and monorail from KL and it was a great way to see some of the other areas. Quick and easy to use. You have to walk through Nu Central Shopping Mall to get to the area.
On the way back to KL we took a GRAB which was 10MYR.

Ii is a very interesting place to visit as the name suggest it. A bit disappointed to find this totally different from India. The clothes are a bit pricey compared to India and the place does not look tip top it is a bit untidy. When I visited there I tasted the food which was not to to my liking. The food is India is delicious . Also in South Africa. There were not many tourist when we visited . Took hop and hop bus to this destination.

We visited during a wet evening, just after some heavy rainfall. The area is easily accessed through the Monorail line and the KL Sentral station. A worthwhile trip if seeking authentic Indian food and shopping, although there are no must see attractions here, the appeal of the area was its ambience, which thanks to the street food and other vendors, made you feel you could be in India. In a city that is modernising fast, this area felt like a window into an older part of KL.

This place caters to the needs of Indian households and everything that they need. It is located in the city centre and also functions as the centre of business for Indian traders and business people... you get everything here, from saree shops to eateries and Indian sweet shops, provision shops to flower shops and other retail businesses... it's all here!.. This place is very popular even among tourists and is always lively as ever!

You can get most of India here from textiles to food. You can find amazing Indian Sweets on the roadside. The flowers remind India. The majority of the South Indian feel here. Colorful. Not much to do here but worth exploring the shops

Feel like you are in India. Music, shops, food, bajaj motorbike, masala tea and little Indian style life. This place is always congested with huge crowds. Enjoy Masala Tea.

If you spend several days in KL you can include it in your plans, otherwise, prioritize other visits much more beautiful than this place. A street with arches and little else. It has nothing to do with it, and everything is pretty old and sloppy. In 15 minutes we saw everything and it was quite disappointing.

We caught the LRT to KL station and exited the shopping mall heading right toward the elephant structure and turned left walking down and up both sides of the street. As expected not very big however was interesting. stopped an grabbed some freshly cooked treats (curry puffs, battered chickpea and jackfruit). Day was hot 39 degrees so take plenty of liquids..

Great part of town. You see Malaysia's Indian community in their full splendour. Plenty of places to eat (mainly South India, with some hard to get specialist Tamil Kitchens) shopping, temples or just savour the unique atmosphere.

Phew, we were pretty disappointed. Either the atmosphere just wasn't there that day or we just had other ideas. Nothing spectacular here. We thought there would be more authentic restaurants/stalls with Indian food... in the end we found them but apart from the fact that the street is brightly lit and a bit decorated, we couldn't see why you had to go there. Yes... so you could be there and walk through it... As everywhere, traffic is heavy here too and so we got back on the train and continued on relatively quickly.

Is this easy to get taxi from Airport to KP city for 4 person with luggage and how much it will cost..is Uber available
Written 15 February 2018
Yes it is very easy to get taxis. You can go taxionline and book. It cost us about 100 dollars. I did the taxi booking online for both arrival and departure. After that u keep the receipt and when book ask for "Meet and great." They will pick u with your name on a board. Or else when you arrive there is taxipoint u can book and they will send u a taxi. Taxis drives whole night and it is very safe.

What are all the tourist attractions in Kuala Lumpur and Langkawi to visit in February
Written 3 February 2017
In Kuala Lumpur there are the Petronas Towers, the fountains at night outside the towers, China Town, Brickfields, the Royal Palace, Central Market, there are gardens, Batu Caves are not an expensive taxi ride away they are worth a visit. I like just soaking up the atmosphere.
I haven't been to Langkawi but I'm told the beaches are lovely.

What is the price for visiting the Petronas towers
Written 24 January 2017
For two people it cost us MYR 170, (approx.R512) buy your tickets in advance online as they are nearly always sold out on the day!

bonjour,
Je souhaite visiter la malaisie en decembre et nottament little india a KL; je suis passionnee par la couture; les tissues et la mercerie.
est ce qu 'il y a des merceries dans ce quartier indien .
merci d' avance
Written 21 September 2016
Bonjour, vous allez trouver beaucoup de magasins de tissus dans Little India, mais dont je connais pas la qualité puisque je ne les ai pas visité. J'y ai surtout remarqué le nombre impressionnant de restaurants et m'y suis prêté plusieurs fois pour manger et c'était toujours délicieux. Par contre, le quartier Chow Kit où je logeais, regorge de marchands de tissus et vêtements de mercerie provenant de toutes les régions du monde. C'est un quartier où les immigrants font des affaires et c'est tout près du centre-ville et des tours Petronas. Vous trouverez ces marchands plus particulièrement autour de Semua House sur Jalan Bunus 6 et Jalan Tuanku Abdul Rahman dont vous trouverez les directions sur Trip Advisor.
Bon séjour en Malaisie!

Hello, is there any good shopping area for ladies accessories, bags and clothes

We were very disappointed with the shopping in Little India. Much better shopping in Bugis Street and the surrounding area.

I am going to be in KL during Chinese new year. Is everything going to be closed? nothing to do? thank you very much!
Written 3 November 2015
Most things will be open but some temples will be hard to get into because of new year celebrations and most of the attraction's will be open as as well.
Have a great time there it is magical.
