    This is a lovely looking Indo-Buddhist style gate. It has an interesting design as it looks like a square gate, but is in fact two gates joined together with horizontal beams. It’s more obvious with viewed on the east-west axis.

    Kudos for the unusual design, but I didn’t think much of the relief sculptures decorating the gate. It just seem cold and sterile as if carved or possibly cast without passion. Fine to take a look if you're visiting Little India or Brickfields, otherwise I wouldn't go out of the way.

    On the upside, the gate is a good photo opportunity and that's why I'm giving plus one star.

    This large elephant monument/fountain is located at a busy junction in Little India Brickfields. The Torana Gate is also at this same junction. Recommend walking past to take a few photos at least.

    A short walk from coloured archways at central Little India. We found Little India a lot smaller than expected, not much to do and surprisingly we didn't see that many restaurants...We visited late afternoon so possibly more happening in the evening?

    The Octane sculpture is a sculpture of an Iso-octane molecule that is an important component of gasoline, as in the stuff that fuels the car. This sculpture is appropriately located outside the Petronas Discovery Centre referencing both the science and the commodity that is so important to the Malaysian economy.
