About Pasar Seni
Pasar Seni (Central Market) is located at Jalan Hang Kasturi, a few minutes away from
Petaling Street (Chinatown). It was founded in 1888 and originally used as
a wet market, while the current building was completed in 1937. It has
since been classified as a Heritage Site by the Malaysian Heritage Society
and it is now a landmark for Malaysian culture and heritage. It is also
strategically located within public transport facilities such as RapidKL
LRT and bus services.
Central Market has created a
corner to display multi-ethnicity and the stalls are zoned based on the
features of each race. The new zone therefore would consist of 3 lanes
namely the Lorong Melayu, Straits Chinese and Lorong India. The purpose of
this new zone is to let the visitors have an insight of the cultural
difference of the various races in Malaysia.
