Chinatown >>
Sentul
In the morning, we went to Maharajarela Station to take for
monorail. This time, we wanted to go to Sentul as at there has many shops that sell for
motorcycle’s spare parts and my cousin want to buy a helmet for her boyfriends.
At yesterday night, we had asked for taxi driver about how to go to Sentul and he
suggested that we take monorail to Chow Kit Station and take taxi to Sentul.
Maharajalela > Hang Tuah
> Imbi > Bukit Bintang > Raja Chulan > Bukit Nanas > Medan
Tuanku > Chow Kit
 |
| Monorail #2 |
As you can see that Chow Kit is almost at the end or near
with Titiwangsa Station so we need to wait the monorail stop at few stations before arrive at our destination. When we arrived at Chow Kit Station, we took
a taxi to Sentul which the taxi driver charges for RM 5 by using meter.

When we arrived at Sentul, we went for breakfast at one of
the Kopitiam (a traditional coffee shop that serve with meals and beverage). As
the times, we went to the Kopitiam, it was full of people so the boss asked us
to share a table with 2 aunts.
When we ate our breakfast, one of the friendly aunts had
talked to us and from there we started our conversation with them. I would like
to describe the 2 aunts who are happy and sad aunt based on the conversation
with them. We had ordered Wantan noodle as our breakfast.
The happy aunt said that she never bring her hand phone
when she went to nearest place from her house such as Kopitiam as she did not want
to disturb by hand phone that might call from her son or daughter.
She also said that hand phone like a bomb as when you are eating, suddenly you received a call from son maybe has any urgent things that might want you to go back, then you need to hurry eat the food.

As you know that, old people cannot hurry
finish their food and they need to finish food slowly. The happy aunt also said
that sad aunt had received a call from her son to ask she to go back so the sad
aunt did not eat anything but only asked for a drink as she wants to go back soon.

While we eating our breakfast, sad aunt had discuss with
one of the staff about the taxi driver issue that now need to avoid to take taxi as
taxi driver may be a thief or rapist. Happy aunt said that cannot judge all
the taxi drivers as bad people because of the issue that happening as she had
met with a nice taxi driver that took an umbrella to happy aunt as the sky was
raining when sending she back.
After finished breakfast, it’s time for my cousin to find
her boyfriend’s helmet. Some of the shop owner that sells motorcycle accessory
praises us that we are brave as 2 girls come from far places and come to Sentul
by self.
At here, I would like to advise that survey for few shops here before purchase any motorcycle accessory as my cousin had placed order and paid for a helmet from a shop as the shop did not has ready stock so he will sent to our hotel by night, then my cousin had found a exactly same helmet with more lower price at other shop and when she want to refund/cancel for the order, the shop owner did not refund to she as she had placed the order.

Sentul >> The 5 Element Hotel
After purchase helmet and some motorcycle accessories, we walked
to Titiwangsa Station and took for LRT. At there, did not has any counter for
us to purchase the token so we asked a help of a Malay girl who queue up behind
of us when we purchase tokens through Ticket Vending Machine as we did not know
where is the station/line that we suppose to stop by. We told the girl that we
wanted to go Chinatown so she said that we can took the LRT to Plaza Rakyat.

| LRT #1 |
Light Rail Transit (LRT) is a typically an urban form of
public transport using steel-tracked fixed guide ways that operate primarily

Masjid Jamek > Plaza Rakyat

| LRT #2 |
When
we arrived at Plaza Rakyat Station, we just come out from the station and tried
to find our hotel which is The 5 Element Hotel. On the way we walking, we had
spotted Maybank, Hotel Geo and a Secondary School (all those landmark that can
see from our room in hotel) so we knew that we are on the right track to back
hotel.

The
5 Element Hotel >> Kuala Lumpur Convention Centre (KLCC)
After
rest for a while in hotel, we planned to go to KLCC to take a look so we had
asked for the hotel receptionist about the way to go there. Unconsciously, we
had walked to Central Market and still did not find the station so we asked for
help from a small Police Station in Central Market.

After that, we had
successful arrived at Pasar Seni Station with the guideline of police. At
there, we also need to purchase token at Ticket Vending Machine but this time,
we asked the staff at counter for which station that we supposed to stop by if
we want to go to KLCC.

| Pasar Seni Station |
After purchase the
token, we wait at platform for LRT coming. After we arrived at KLCC station, we
had directly gone in a Shopping Centre and having lunch at there. After lunch,
when we wanted to shop around, then we found out that us maybe not in KLCC but
in other Shopping Centre so we find around and see has an Information Centre so
we asked for them. After that, we realized that now we at Avenue K and KLCC
just near with Avenue K so we need to come out from Avenue K and cross a road
to KLCC.

Jamek > Dang Wangi > Kampung Baru > KLCC

We walked about 5
minutes, both of us was very happy as we arrived at KLCC. The KLCC Station really confusing that made
us thought that we had arrived at KLCC. As the day we went to KLCC was a public
holiday for Awal Muharram so KLCC was full of people includes foreigners, we
just go in for few minutes because inside was too crowded.

KLCC >> Sungai
Wang/ Plaza Low Yat
Near with KLCC has a
road to KLCC Station so we follow the road and arrived at KLCC Station. Next,
we planned to go to Sungai Wang or Plaza Low Yat as my cousin want to buy
computer accessory. Actually it was our fault for not see clearly of the board
as it has pointing the direction for KLCC and Avenue K by right and left when
we arrived at KLCC Station.
Before we purchase
token through Ticket Vending Machine, we had asked for clearly direction for
the staff. This times, it seem has a little bit complicated as we needed to
change station in order to arrive Sungai Wang from KLCC Station as LRT cannot
directly to Sungai Wang.
KLCC > Kampung Baru
> Dang Wangi
When we arrived at
Dang Wangi Station, we needed to walk for a while to arrive at Bukit Nanas
Station. On the way to Bukit Nanas Station, you just follow the sign board and
you can find the station easily. At Bukit Nanas Station, we took monorail to
Bukit Bintang.
Bukit Nanas > Raja
Chulan > Bukit Bintang
 |
| Monorail #3 |
When arrived at Bukit
Bintang Station, we walked to Plaza Low Yat as my cousin knew the way to there.
At Plaza Low Yat, it has many shops for computer and hand phone. At there, my
cousin had brought a keyboard. After purchase the keyboard, my cousin went to
the testing department of the shop to test for the keyboard whether function or
not. At there, I had spotted the technical guy usually sit on the CPU with a
cushion on it. Wow, really save and recycle.
Plaza Low Yat >>
The 5 Element Hotel
After finished shop at
Plaza Low Yat, we went back to hotel by take a taxi. The taxi driver cost us RM
15 for the fee. At night, we eat our lunch at Chinatown.
The 5 Element Hotel
>> Low Cost Carrier Terminal (LCCT)
As we back on
Wednesday so my cousin’s friends cannot take us to airport as they need to work
so we took taxi to airport. The taxi that we took was called by hotel
receptionist and taxi fee is RM 90. We arrived at airport after almost 1 hour.
At taxi, I feel sleepy because it take long times to arrive airport because KL
was so big compare to my place that take around 15 minutes arrive at airport.
