Where concrete speaks: a visual stroll through REXKL

#summervacay #travel #june2025 #thingstodo
In the heart of Kuala Lumpur’s Chinatown, REXKL is a place where nostalgia collides with creativity—an old cinema reborn into one of the city’s most photogenic cultural spaces. What once echoed with film reels and stage performances now pulses with indie bookstores, cafes, craft stores, and raw industrial charm.

I came for a coffee but stayed for the textures—the peeling walls, exposed beams, uneven flooring. Every corner begged to be framed, every staircase whispered of stories past. It’s the kind of place that makes your camera feel like an extension of your eyes.

The open atrium, sunlight pouring through iron grilles, and the contrast of modern installations against aged concrete all lend themselves to moody, evocative shots. Photographers will find this place endlessly generous, whether for portraits, fashion, or pure architectural studies.
