KL Performing Arts Centre

One of my favourite places in town is this old train maintenance/repair yard called Sentul West. This huge plot of land was bought over by a developer a few years ago and a corner of it was converted into a park. There are still traces of what it was before though…

An old abandoned factory


Abandoned building


Some of the other buildings have been converted into sales/developer offices.

There’s a nice Japanese restaurant located besides the man-made lake

Gardens around




And right behind the restaurant is a Koi breeding centre...



With some of the biggest Kois I have ever seen. They are all for sale. The nicest one there was this one that was solid gold all around, going for about USD6000.

But the best part of this park is the KL Performance Arts Centre (http://www.klpac.com/)


I’d come here every Saturday for gamelan (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gamelan) practices. These are how gamelan instruments look like. All hand-made to order from Bali if I'm not mistaken.






Rehearsals are going to restart again in about a month’s time after a few weeks break. So just making sure I haven’t forgotten everything (I have....)

And of course, this time around to take pictures too…
