Beside using the bus or taxi, another public transport you can use in Kuala Lumpur is KL Monorail. The monorail goes to the popular places like Bukit Bintang and the fare is really cheap.
This is the convenient way to travel by public transport as you don’t need to wait or get stuck in the boring traffic jam when you use the bus or taxi.
One of the interesting facts about Kuala Lumpur monorail is it began it operations on August 31st 2003 and the date was the Malaysia National Day.
The total distant of the rail is scarcely 9 km and it also takes you to KL Sentral. However you still need to walk a bit to KL Sentral Station and this station is the hub where you can easily go to Kuala Lumpur International Airport (KLIA) or you can board the train run by KTM.

Chow Kit is actually a place name and located in the Kuala Lumpur city center Malaysia. Chow Kit is popular in Kuala Lumpur because here you can buy lots of cheap stuff like used garments and fresh vegetables or grocery products.
If you the first timer here, you may think that the main road you see there is Chow Kit Road but the road is actually Jalan Tuanku Abdul Rahman.

In Chow Kit you can find the hotel like Cititel Express for your stay and Chow Kit is accessible from Bukit Bintang by using the monorail system.

You can also easily find the cheap garment sellers at the roadside of Jalan Tuanku Abdul Rahman. Many supermarkets cannot stay long in business here due to the fierce price competition with the small shops around here. So that’s why you can see Mydin Store is still there because they apply the wholesale price of their products.
