Kuala Lumpur - Changkat - Alor

Today. I saw this building and I was rolling in laughter!

It has been 9 days since we landed in Kuala Lumpur. The weather in KL has been trying to murder us. After all our grumbles it decided to rain on us today! We got to stroll around after the rain and ended up around Alor Street and Changkat Street.

This Bund Shanghai building is located around Changkat Street. Why in the world would anyone name this building as such? 

I have been enjoying views from the 22nd floor of our apartment. It is fun to look at a place that I know quite well but figure out roads from high above. Somehow buildings and roads look so much nearer from up here!
The Exchange 106 

Was developed for international business and finance. This skyscraper is a 95 floor building topped with a 12 story high 'crown'. Exchange 106 is located in the heart of Tun Razak Exchange or TRX; a new financial district. I believe this tower is completed but the financial district around it is still under construction.



Alor "Food" Street

This is Changkat. It is a street filled with restaurants and bars on both sides.
Opium Restaurant looked like another Shanghainese decorated restaurant 
but if you check the menu, it serves a fusion of food including Malay cuisine!




Walked towards our apartment along Nagasari Street. Needed dinner bad!
I visited No Black Tie many many moons ago.
 I wonder whether it is just closed for tonight or it has closed down for good. 
It was a pretty neat jazz bar.
Ended up having dinner here as it is just next door to our apartment building!
