Little India in Masjid India is an ideal place for Indians and Malays alike for the traditional stuff. A nice place for buying gold among Indians and hawker food especially during Ramazan fasting

Enjoyed this quick tour through the culture of India -- had just taken a cab out of China Town and this was a welcome surprise -- cleaner and prices seemed reasonable. Would have spent more time there if we had the time.

the area has improved compared to when i first went in 2006 - they now have more b&b places and restaurants. i think it is all because of the development of KL Sentral. in the past, the few b&b places really looked dodgy but now, the new b&b's seem better. for those who are taking budget airlines, it is convenient...
