between
the skyscrapers and neon
lights, old Kuala Lumpur
still still thrives and is
surviving the changes that
have taken place. Jalan Tuanku Abdul

Jalan TAR -was the epitome of the Kuala
Lumpur shopping experience back in the

took themetropolitan city by storm. Jalan

spent at Jalan TAR beautiful.
