LRT Kampung Baru to Kampung Baru

Quick Guide: From LRT Kampung Baru to Kampung Baru


Step out of the train and into history. Kampung Baru, a traditional Malay village over a century old, sits right beside Kuala Lumpur’s modern skyline. Linked to KLCC by the Saloma Bridge, it remains a living heritage enclave in the heart of the city.


Step‑by‑Step Directions

  • Exit via Gate A on your left, using the escalator.

  • Turn left immediately after exiting.

  • Kampung Baru is just steps away, unfolding on your left.

Why This Walk Matters

Kampung Baru is more than a neighborhood — it’s a cultural landmark. Amid towering skyscrapers, the village preserves wooden houses, bustling food stalls, and a slower rhythm of life. Walking here feels like crossing a threshold between eras: the old Malay heartland and the modern metropolis.

Travel Tip

Take time to wander its lanes. You’ll find traditional eateries serving nasi lemak, satay, and kuih, alongside murals and heritage homes. Evening strolls are especially atmospheric, with the glow of KLCC rising just beyond the rooftops.
