Like China town and Little India, Jalan Masjid is another community-driven locality. It is highly influenced and run by the Indian Muslim community in Kuala Lumpur. Its street market is filled with vivacious colours and accessories of all sorts. From jewellery to delicious food items to souvenirs, everything is on display. It brings out the best of all, especially during the month of Ramadan. During this month, it is advised to reach by late afternoon because the food might be over by evening when the fast breaks. Reaching here is a simple 5 minute walk from Masjid Jamek station.
