About Shopping At Central Market In Kuala Lumpur
Founded in the year 1888, the Central Market Kuala Lumpur is one of the major attractions and a popular landmark in the KL city. Built in an art-deco structure, it houses an array of stalls selling some amazing souvenirs, traditional batik work, household goods, and more, making it a perfect place to indulge in a shopping spree. You may also stop by Kasturi Walk housing numerous street-food shops, and grab a chance to treat your taste buds to luscious dishes. In addition to that, the art-deco building also houses a food court, offering a bevy of delicious cuisines.
Thanks to its ultimate location at the heart of the city of Kuala Lumpur and heritage status, the Central Market manages to draw a huge flock of tourists and locals alike irrespective of their interest in shopping. While, its proximity to the other famous attractions, such as Petronas Towers, KL Tower, and Batu Caves, makes it one of the must-included places in the itineraries of Kuala Lumpur tours.
Highlights of Central Market Kuala Lumpur
Divided into three zones- Malay, Indian, and Chinese- the Central Market Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia is a perfect reflection of the diverse culture and traditions of the nation. If you are not a local, then navigating the outdoor bazaar might seem difficult to you. You may choose to explore the Malay area, or start from the Little India section, and buy local handicrafts, or clothing and fashion accessories from the respective zones to take back home as souvenirs.
What’s more? If you love savoring cultural performances, you can always head next to Kasturi Walk or the outdoor stage adjacent to its entrance, and enjoy theatre performance by local artists or dancers. In addition to that, there are also some art galleries located in the vicinity of the attraction to keep an art lover in you hooked for a longer duration. The best time to stroll through the Central Market of Kuala Lumpur is during the festivals of Deepavali, Hari Raya Aidilfitri, and Chinese New Year, when the market hosts many events during the special occasions. Moreover, the traditional outfits and homewares are easily available in the market during the festive celebrations.
