Shopping at Petaling Street-Chinatown-Kuala Lumpur-Malaysia
Kuala Lumpur’s Chinatown, which is based in Petaling Street, is also known as ‘Chee Cheong Kai’, which means ‘Starch Factory Street’, homage to its roots as a tapioca producing suburb. Today, it is Kuala Lumpur’s own Chinatown where you can find all things Chinese from herbs to dry goods and toys to clothes. The entire street is closed to traffic during the afternoons as traders set up stalls to peddle various merchandise, food and electronics.
