I believe they perform almost everyday. There are others that performed at Central Market. <br /><br />Have a nice day.Pak Idrushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05420141407304142741noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5803753.post-2883111974270495212009-06-16T11:06:13.912+08:002009-06-16T11:06:13.912+08:00Hi Pak Idrus,

I would love to go on a photography trip. <br /><br />Thanks. :)Fara Omarnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5803753.post-32008792254362771052009-02-10T20:48:00.000+08:002009-02-10T20:48:00.000+08:00Akmal, thanks for the visit and sharing your thoug...Akmal, thanks for the visit and sharing your thoughts on the Bintang Walk. <BR/><BR/>At your age you should make walking around as your daily ritual. Indeed it is refreshing to walk and enjoy the places with a camera to capture the events unfolded. I did once and managed to capture great images of the Bintang Walk and it is now in my archive. <BR/><BR/>Have a nice day.Pak Idrushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05420141407304142741noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5803753.post-27656475936533995872009-02-10T19:08:00.000+08:002009-02-10T19:08:00.000+08:00Covert_Operations'78, Ee Lynn thanks for the visit...Covert_Operations'78, Ee Lynn thanks for the visit and sharing your thoughts on the Bintang Walk. <BR/><BR/>Yes the Malaysia busker are now very professional and their performance add value to the places. As usual tourists area are full of all sorts of services, so just walk along and just ignore them and you would be OK. That's capitalism in its ugly form.<BR/><BR/>Have a nice day.Pak Idrushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05420141407304142741noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5803753.post-92153236978555526902009-02-10T19:05:00.000+08:002009-02-10T19:05:00.000+08:00I used to do that also; walking from KLCC, to Pavi...I used to do that also; walking from KLCC, to Pavilion and finally to Times Square looking for food :D<BR/>Too bad I didn't have my camera yet at that time. But should I be doing it again next time, i doubt that my battery will survive.

I did that one evening and it was great. You just take a walk on the pavement along Jalan Sultan Ismail in front of the Hilton, now Mutiara Hotel, to the Equatorial Hotel, then to Jalan Pinang. On both sides of the roads there are many restaurant/Bar/disco and well lit in the evening, so the walk is actually very pleasant and enjoyable. <BR/><BR/>They have improved the pavement and great to walk on. Try it the next time you are around. In fact the Pavilion Mall has provide a crossover path over the Jalan Raja Chulan to get to the other side of the road where there are more eateries call the Chulan Square. Things has changed indeed. <BR/><BR/>Have a nice day.Pak Idrushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05420141407304142741noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5803753.post-19001285396305613612009-02-10T12:34:00.000+08:002009-02-10T12:34:00.000+08:00Oooo, those buskers are really talented, Pak Idrus...Oooo, those buskers are really talented, Pak Idrus! Including those teenagers doing shuffle and b-boy dancing outside Maybank.<BR/><BR/>I don't like the Bukit Bintang area much because everyone wants me to go in for foot relexology. I don't even look tired! Their foreign workers grab my arm and try to lead me into the shop for reflexology. Alamak! And there are rows upon rows of relexology shops. I think that's silly. I wouldn't want to open a shop identical to my neighbour's. <BR/><BR/>Best regards,<BR/>CO78~CovertOperations78~https://www.blogger.com/profile/05533605886607468773noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5803753.post-20424675940680705282009-02-09T23:47:00.000+08:002009-02-09T23:47:00.000+08:00One can walk from Bintang Walk to Petronas Towers?...One can walk from Bintang Walk to Petronas Towers?? Wow! I'm trying to imagine the route.<BR/><BR/>Like Louis, I used to hang-out at Bintang Walk quite a bit. It was good therapy for me to sit at the side-walk tables after a long day at work and relax, people-watch or hang out with friends. Add in some window-shopping as well. :)Rita Hohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13777602037418303561noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5803753.post-15293729911197687882009-02-09T19:19:00.000+08:002009-02-09T19:19:00.000+08:00Louis, thanks for the visit and the good words.
