Kuala Lumpur Photo Gallery - Around Sentral
|
|||
Although not considered a core area of Kuala Lumpur for tourists and offices, Sentral is a major transport interchange. For the first 9 months of 2023, it was the busiest station in the city with over 6.8 million passengers ending their journey here.The Aloft Hotel has a nice rooftop swimming pool with views of Sentral station's new developments. There are many tall buildings nearby so it is not possible to see all the way to the Petronas Towers.

On my last visit, walking from the monorail terminus to Sentral was a painful journey around streets and empty plots, making me wonder why they built it there in the first place? Now, a new shopping mall connects the monorail with the LRT station in Sentral, a much-needed improvement. They have come a long way to integrate the transit lines.

Meanwhile, skyscraper developments are plenty across the street.

Tourist attractions become more scarce south of Sentral, but the elevated LRT line offers decent views of a lot of construction even as the density falls.

Menara Telekom rises 310m tall and resembles a sprouting bamboo shoot. The twisting shape allows many skygardens to beautify every couple of floors.
