About this photo

The entrance to Petaling Street market is marked by a tiled roof arch, decorated with red Chinese lanterns. The street's name is written in gold letters on a plaque. Walk through here to the market stalls of the best-known street in the original Chinese quarter of Kuala Lumpur. Green awnings protrude from the shop fronts as a mass of colourful objects from sunglasses to trainers spills out onto the street. Food stalls serve local, Chinese and fish dishes to taste as you walk from one end to the other. Visit Kuala Lumpur on Insight Guides' Indulgent Malaysia trip and experience the bustling market for yourself.

The agents are very helpful and patient and willing to adjust the itinerary even up to almost the last day before traveling. The agent (Liz) was very flexible and thorough when adjusting the itinerary. I found the entire trip very worthwhile. The accommodations even thou very basic at times were very good plus many were outstanding. I especially appreciated the least-developed islands like Flores and Jamba. Bali even thou it has some very enjoyable sites is overrated.
