Taking to the streets of Kuala Lumpur, Linh and I loosely followed a walking tour from our guide book, conveniently beginning near our hotel at Medan Tuanku. We spotted this "Malaysia" mural below, but it was actually near the Petronas Twin Towers rather than on the tour.

The walking tour we took explored colonial KL and Little India, although we did pass plenty of shops reflective of Malaysia's various cultures. These colourful shophouses sold equally colourful fabrics.
The Coliseum Cinema - a colonial building.
In the heart of Little India, we began to come across rows of stalls on several streets.
Our walking tour ended at Merdeka (Malaysia's Independence) Square.
In February 2009, Mark and Linh moved from the UK to the Far East to spend 16 months living in Hong Kong and traveling around East Asia. This website documents their journey.
