Bukit Bintang

The area has long been Kuala Lumpur's most prominent retail belt that is home to many landmark shopping centres, al-fresco cafés, bars, night markets, food street, mamak stalls as well as hawker-type eateries. This area is popular among tourists and locals, especially among the youths. Since June 2021, the local municipal and authority, Kuala Lumpur City Hall (DBKL), has created a scramble crossing at the junction of Bukit Bintang, located in front of the McDonald's Bukit Bintang outlet, just below the KL Monorail Line. This was done to increase the walkability in the area. Located within Kuala Lumpur's Golden Triangle, the Bukit Bintang district begins with Jalan Bukit Bintang, starting at Jalan Raja Chulan and ending at Jalan Pudu. The two other roads that border the Bukit Bintang district are Jalan Sultan Ismail , intersecting it and Jalan Imbi at the south. Jalan Walter Grenier, Jalan Bulan, Changkat Bukit Bintang and Jalan Alor are considered part of the entertainment district. Bukit Bintang borders Pudu and Cheras to the south, Petaling Street (Chinatown) to the west, Bukit Nanas to the north, Kuala Lumpur City Centre (KLCC) to the northeast as well as Tun Razak Exchange and Maluri district to the east.
