To continue from the photos uploaded yesterday, I thought I shall kick off from when I reached Masjid India area. As I mentioned, it had been a while since I last ventured around this area of Kuala Lumpur.
Since it was Sunday, the place was buzzing. My initial impression was that the place would be full of Indonesian vendors, but it turned out that they were mainly local. I did not have time to enter Wisma Yakin next door, but I did have biryani for lunch at one of the restaurant nearby.
This used to be a landmark building in KL. If I was not istaken, it used to be the headquarters of Bank Bumiputra.
But unfortunately, this end of Jalan Ampang had lost its charm. Many of the once-proud buildings were now .... history.
Crossing over towards Masjid India from Jalan Ampang.
They served a mean biryani around here.
The place had a facelift in recent years. The street was turned into covered bazaar, almost similar to Petaling Street and Kasturi Walk. Very comfortable to walk around since you were shaded from the elements.
After a short stroll, I was already around the corner from the end point of the walk, Masjid Jamek.

Looking at you, looking at them.
The welcoming facade of Masjid India Bazaar.
And the inside
Time for some drinks. At the vendors along Jalan Melayu, Masjid India. You would pass through this street walking towards Masjid Jamek.
Reaching the end point with Kak Fauziah, Pak Rahmat, Adi and Kamarul.
The rest of the group had lunch at the Burger King outlet there. Adi, my cousin also joined us at the end point. We spent a good half an hour catching up before the whole party broke up.
Looking forward for the next chapter of the walk. Time now to upload my photo for the photowalk competition. The winner would win Photoshop CS5 and an iPad. Why not.
