Kwai Chai Hong - Street Art in KL Chinatown

If you come to Kuala Lumpur and want to experience a retro atmosphere that perfectly blends art and culture, you must not miss stopping by Kwai Chai Hong, a small old alley hidden between Lorong Panggung and Jalan Petaling.

We chose to go in the morning; the weather was nice, and the natural light was just right, though there was a slight drizzle.

✨ If you have time, we recommend visiting both during the day and at night because at night, beautiful lanterns light up softly, adding a romantic and slightly mysterious atmosphere. Especially during Chinese New Year, it’s definitely worth visiting as the decorations are spectacular.

🍽️ This area is also full of restaurants, cafes, and trendy bars you shouldn’t miss, such as Dabao Restro Bar, G-String, Pik Wah Bar.

📸 For photography enthusiasts or content creators, this place is definitely a delight because the mural art here changes themes periodically, so every visit feels unique. The creativity and lighting design are very well thought out.
