Jalan Pasar - the place for electronics

In addition to pets and pet supplies, Jalan Pasar is also know for electronic equipment and parts.

 

  

  

  

  

There are shops selling electric items on both sides of the road.  If there is anything you need or any parts that you can't get anywhere else, chances are that they will be available here.

 

 

Jalan Pasar - get your pets here

From Jalan Pudu we enter Jalan Pasar.

 

One of the first buildings along Jalan Pasar is this one. 

In one of the comments to my earlier posts, the writer requested that I refrain from showing run-down buildings as it portrays KL in a bad light.  To me, rather then those white washed or freshly painted buildings, these are the buildings that exude character and show KL as a real living city with real living people.

 
 

The building actually houses a restaurant.

 
 

Traditional Chinese Medicine practitioners are here as in other places of Jalan Pudu.

 
 

There is a temple here.

 
 

I was surprised that there was a stall selling flower garlands next to the temple.

 
 

This is the market area.  I'm not sure if this is a daily affair or only on the week-ends.  It looks like a regular morning market, but has many stalls selling pets and pet supplies.

 
 

  

  

  

  

  

I was intrigued by this sign, especially the 'casualty' part.  Unfortunately the place was closed.

 

  

  

  

  

  

  

  

  

  

  

Due to the market, the traffic was slow moving and parking can be a problem.  I was walking, so no problem for me.

 

 

Jalan Pudu - Still there...

In addition to food outlets i.e. restaurants and stalls, there are also a number of budget hotels along the street.

 

  

  

  

  

This must have been a higher quality hotel but seems to be abandoned now.

 
 

There are also many clinics along this stretch.  Most streets have maybe 2 or 3 clinics, here the number is 2 to 3 times that.

 
 

  

There's even a free clinic here.

  

This clinic displays the 1Malaysia logo.  I wonder if there is a doctor there or is it manned only by an attendant and a nurse like the government 1Malaysia clinics.

 
 

I also noticed 2 medical labs here.

 
 

A Chinese Kongsi is also here.

 
 

This is one establishment that I want to check out on a week day.

 
 

When I think of barbers I'm mostly thinking Indian, but here's a Chinese barber...

 
 

...next door to an Indian one.

 
 

There's an old cake shop / bakery ...

 
 

... and a poor man's banker - a pawn shop; with a clinic next door.

  

This 'run-down' building houses a culinary institute, or so says the sign...

 
 

... and it also hides a match making agency.

 
 

Not to forget, there are also a number of used car dealers here.

 
 

  

As we reach the Pudu Fire and Rescue Department, we'll turn into Jalan Pasar.
