BUKIT BINTANG Crossing, NOT Tokyo Shibuya / New York Times Square, I❤MALAYSIA

Malaysia Today – Federal Territory of Kuala Lumpur – Bukit Bintang Kuala Lumpur : Bukit Bintang Crossing in Kuala Lumpur City Centre, not Tokyo Shibuya crossing or New York Times Square Manhattan. Bukit Bintang Walk is the shopping and entertainment district of Kuala Lumpur City Centre, Malaysia. It encompasses Jalan Bukit Bintang (Bukit Bintang Road in English) and its immediate surrounding areas. The area has long been Kuala Lumpur’s most prominent retail belt that is home to many landmark shopping centres, al-fresco cafés, bars, night markets, food street, mamak stalls as well as hawker-type eateries. This area is popular among tourists and locals, especially among the youths. Since June 2021, the local municipal and authority, Kuala Lumpur City Hall (DBKL), has created a Tokyo Shibuya-style pedestrian crossing at MRT Bukit Bintang Station, just below the KL Monorail Line. Bukit Bintang shopping street located within Kuala Lumpur’s Golden Triangle, the Bukit Bintang district begins with Bukit Bintang Road, starting at Raja Chulan Road and ending at Pudu Road. The two other roads that border the Bukit Bintang district are Sultan Ismail Road, intersecting it and Imbi Road at the south. Walter Grenier Road, Bulan Road, Changkat Bukit Bintang and Jalan Alor Food Street are considered part of the entertainment district. Bukit Bintang borders Pudu and Cheras to the south, Petaling Street (Chinatown) to the west, Bukit Nanas to the north, Kuala Lumpur City Centre (KLCC) to the northeast as well as Tun Razak Exchange and Maluri district to the east. Jalan Bukit Bintang is a 3.4 km long road starting from the intersection of Jalan Raja Chulan and ending at Jalan Pudu. In the past, Bukit Bintang was a residential area. In 1945, Jalan Bukit Bintang was the only street that had entertainment, shops and hawker food. Back then, the street featured a famous cabaret, cultural shows, Malay joget, Chinese opera shows, wayang, ballroom dances like rhumba, foxtrot and tango, and amusement fun fair elements like a merry-go-round and ferris wheel. Low Yow Chuan built the Capitol Hotel in 1948, which was later sold and is now called the Malaysia Hotel. In 1947, Hong Kong media mogul Shaw built the famous and popular Bukit Bintang Amusement Park. This entertainment centre was where Sungai Wang Plaza is located today. On weekends, thousands of locals and tourists throng Bintang Walk and its shopping centres. Many major nightlife events take place here, such as the New Year’s countdown, Merdeka eve celebrations, street concerts and parties. Bukit Bintang is one of the city’s shopping districts. Many of the city’s major retail malls are located in this area, including Berjaya Times Square, Imbi Plaza, Fahrenheit 88, Low Yat Plaza, Starhill Gallery, Sungei Wang Plaza, Lot 10, Pavilion Kuala Lumpur, LaLaport Bukit Bintang City Centre, The Exchange TRX, and Merdeka 118 Mall (upcoming). Restaurants dedicated to Arabian gastronomy have been sprouting along with the core of the Bintang Walk of late due to a recent general initiative to lure Arab tourists to this region. Popular Maghreb and Lebanese alongside Iranian delicacies are increasingly served by restaurants – source: Wikipedia.
