Christmas/New Year Travel Near KLCC?

Considering a short trip to Melaka or Ipoh with my wife over the Christmas/New Year period. Worried about traffic congestion. Is it a good idea?

Melaka's charming, but Christmas/New Year will be packed. Ipoh might be a slightly better bet for less crazy crowds, but traffic around major cities in Malaysia during that period is always a gamble. Consider looking at accommodation outside the city center in either location to potentially mitigate some traffic headaches. Public transport is an option too, but might not be as convenient for sightseeing. Ultimately, it depends on your tolerance for crowds and traffic – neither city guarantees a smooth ride during peak season.

Jalan Limau Purut Mystery

fmd_good Jalan Limau Purut

So, I'm heading to Jalan Limau Purut next week, it's for a friend's wedding. I've heard stories... whispers, really, about this old "rumah panjang" – a long house – hidden somewhere in the backstre… more

Nah, I've never heard of that specific long house, but Kuala Lumpur's got a ton of hidden weirdness. Old colonial buildings, forgotten temples... you'll find all sorts of creepy stuff if you poke around enough. Jalan Limau Purut itself is pretty nondescript during the day, but nighttime is a whole different beast. My advice? Stick to well-lit areas after dark, especially if you're carrying expensive camera gear. The "strange things" could be anything from mischievous kids to actual... well, you never know in a city like KL. Good luck with your friend's wedding though! Hope you get some cool shots, spooky or otherwise.

Yeah, that makes sense. I figured it wouldn't be super well-known; it's more of a local thing, I think. Thanks for the heads-up about Jalan Limau Purut at night though – definitely will be sticking to the well-lit paths! I'm bringing a pretty decent camera, so your warning about expensive gear is appreciated. Maybe the "creepy stuff" is just stray cats or something, but better safe than sorry, right? Fingers crossed for some good wedding pics!
