This barber shop visit was in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. Kuala Lumpur is one of the leading cities in the world for tourism and shopping. It is the eighth most visited city in the world and is home to three of the world’s 10 largest malls.
We really enjoyed our time in the Bukit Bintang area and exploring Jalan Alor Street that has traditional Chinese seafood, Malay food, and a variety of other foods.
The major tourist destinations in Kuala Lumpur include the Petronas Twin Tower, the Bukit Bintang shopping district, the Kuala Lumpur Tower, and Petaling Street (Chinatown). Kuala Lumpur plays host to many cultural festivals such as the Thaipusam procession at the Sri Mahamariamman Temple.
We loved our time discovering this amazing city and sitting in the chair at Kodai Sopan Barbershoppe in Wisma Central.
