Home to over 1.4 million inhabitants, KL plays host to the world's tallest twin buildings (Petronas Twin Towers), colonial edifices such as Dataran Merdeka, and plenty of inner-city greenery. Although you'll frequently hear the adhan (call to prayer) coming from mosques, it's easy to forget KL's Islamic roots once you hit the city's nitty-gritty sights. It is these spots - thriving hawker centres, pre-war shop-houses and a colourful jumble of street markets - that define KL and draw in countless visitors every year. From Petaling Street's faux-label laden avenue and Little India's colourful, culture- rich wares to the breathtaking view from the Twin Towers' Skybridge and a variety of temples, KL has something for everyone.

  • Testing the Relationship of Spatial Configuration of Street Networks
    PLANNING MALAYSIA: Journal of the Malaysian Institute of Planners VOLUME 18 ISSUE 4 (2020), Page 92 – 113 PUBLIC SPACES AND GENDER: TESTING THE RELATIONSHIP OF SPATIAL CONFIGURATION OF STREET NETWORKS Nurul Shakila Khalid1, Raja Norashekin Raja Othman2, and Marlyana Azyyati Marzukhi3 1,2,3Centre of Studies for Town and Regional Planning, Faculty of Architecture, Planning and Surveying UNIVERSITI TEKNOLOGI MARA, MALAYSIA Abstract The purpose of this paper is to examine the spatial dominance in public spaces from a gendered and women perspectives and to analyse the relationship with the spatial configuration of street networks. In analysing the street networks in Space Syntax, the question arises; to what extent the movement and activity may explain street integration among gender-based pedestrians. The result found that there is a correlation between spatial configurative analyses and women present in the streets. In essence, the less integrated streets attract more women pedestrians and improve better quality of space. The research is relevant to spatial design interventions and policymaking to enhance gender-equal access to public space.
