Chow Kit market

It’s the largest wet market in KL, and it’s not for the faint-hearted. Meats are butchered in the open while live fish swim madly in pails. But once you’ve passed the rows of vegetables, local fruits and spices, a staggering array of street food await you (go for the laksa). On Mondays, check out the night market along Lorong Haji Taib for clothes, accessories and more sold at low prices.
