Hot day noon bazaar at Kuala Lumpur's Jalan Tengah

Jalan Tengah in KL City resembles the streets around Masjid India area come every Friday afternoon between 12.00 noon to 2.00 pm as the street suddenly comes alive with many roadside stalls that sprung out selling mostly foodstuff and clothes. A bargain paradise for shoppers in a bazaar atmosphere.
Jalan Tengah is located behind the office buildings of Menara Weld, Menara Affin, Menara MIDF, Wisma Lim Foo Yong and The Lodge Hotel which are facing Jalan Raja Chulan. 

There are more than 50 stalls that lined on both sides of the street from end to end.

The bustling noon market see mostly vendors displayed their wares on stalls, while others just spread them out on the pavement. 

The street is usually crowded and motorists had to inch their way through slowly least they knocked into them. 

It would be good if the authority could close the street to vehicles during the "business" hours to avoid any mishap.




Office workers formed the bulk of the lunch-hour shoppers.

Tourists had even made their way here. I had seen them with camcorders and cameras on their hands.


Motorists passing through the street had to drive slowly to avoid hitting into the crowd of shoppers.
