Address - 18, Jalan Tun H S Lee, City Centre , 50100, Kuala Lumpur, Wilayah Persekutan. Ambiance/Facilities - Antique Highlights - Kafe with a pool Avg. Price per Person - RM30-RM50 Rating - Good A good selection of local cuisine in Malaysia (plenty of vegan options too) all plated very aesthetically so it’s very nice for social media content and also the interior of this cafe is amazing! It’s a hidden gem in KL. Recommend to go there by cab as it is very hard to find parking around that area. The parking also quite cosy as not worth it. 😂 The place also has a nice pool in the middle of the restaurant and it’s open air. Awesome vibes. One of my favorite places that I urge everyone to go check out for instagrammers not to missed this out! If you want a better seat is just beside the pool side, need to do reservation in advance and request them to arrange for you.They will try their best to arrange for you, but please don't fall into the pool🙏😁 The surroundings were very calming, soft chatter in the background, sound of flowing water 🚿 You can request to sit upstairs as well because they are double storey cafe. #Wheretogokualalumpur #cafe #checkin #kafekleptokrat #KL

This is one of the famous landmark in Malaysia. The Old KL Railway Station was among the most photographed symbols of the city. It is worth visiting the railway station to admire the fine british architecture, still very well preserved. Malaysia has a lot of lovely buildings to offer that signify part of wonderful city history. This is a must visit if you have time when travelling in KL.🇲🇾 #malaysia #malaysiatravel #summervacation#hikingtrails#hotelstay#urbanexplorer

This Kuala Lumpur Railway Station seems haunted to me. Poor. Outdated. Abandoned. The KTMB administrator that runs the station seems to have lost their priority since less emphasis is given for keeping and maintaining this place, this place is not being look after properly. The cleanliness of the toilets are questionable. Sorry the way things are being run, I think this place deserved better treatment given the historical values it carries. Don't let it goes to waste. Thumbs if i was right.

Some said it was stand since 1910, but the truth is was since year 1886 long during British era. Then on 1986, we did some renovations inc. installing some AC, washroom, ticket counter etc. till 2001 the KL Sentral started took place slowly. #awesomepic#historicculture#museumquest#seasidephotoguide#naturalwonders

Take Starlux flight JX725 to KUL. Arrival was delayed ~ It was already 6pm when we arrived at the hotel However, all the entry and exit procedures were smooth. It was a pity to use automatic customs clearance throughout the whole process. There is no record of passport stamps~😢 Checked into the hotel today ~ The Majestic Hotel Kuala Lumpur, Autograph Collection (also a Marriott hotel ~ more colonial style) Check-in time 3/29~3/31 Opposite is the St. Regis where I stayed for the first time. Opposite is the old train station. Walk another 500 meters and you will find a shopping mall. There is also an Aloft For dinner, I went to a local restaurant next to the old station. As soon as I entered, it was full of dark-skinned Indians and Malaysians. There were no tourists, let alone Chinese. I became the whitest customer in the restaurant. When I was hesitating about how to order, the boss came over and introduced it to me in English. In the end, I ordered a pork curry and Roti Tissue. When all the food was served, I was halfway through eating and thought about whether I should order a drink. So I immediately found a waiter and ordered a coconut water. I was afraid that I had misunderstood, so I pointed at the coconut and told him. Then the food was served. Another kind of Indian flatbread came. Haha. You are kidding me. Not long after. A drink was served. It looked like Thai milk. After drinking it, my life scrolling light appeared instantly. The drink was carrot juice with condensed milk. In the end, I still managed to finish it. But I couldn't swallow it. I had to pay the bill and leave. Forgive me. I really didn't want to think about that drink again so I didn't take a photo. The total bill was RM33. On the way back to the hotel, I found that the flashing lights of the Black King Kong building looked very much like the colorful marquees of early mobile phones. Okay~ Have a good rest in the hotel tonight~ Leave for Malacca and Putrajaya tomorrow morning #Kuala Lumpur #tourism #Malaysia #Indian cuisine #restaurant📍
