BUKIT BINTANG Walkabout: Golden Dragon 3D Anamorphic Show!

It's Chap Goh Meh!

Chap Goh Meh is celebrated on the 15th day of the first month according to the Chinese calendar, an important festival signifying the end of the celebration. This auspicious day is also known as the Chinese Valentine’s Day.

To commemorate this auspicious day we booked an Airbnb at Bintang Fairlanes Residences (be sure to check out our previous video). After checking in we headed out again to run some errands at Plaza Low Yat.

We walked out of the Airbnb and headed northwest along Lorong Walter Granier then turned left onto Jalan Walter Granier before turning right onto Jalan Sultan Ismail. We continued northwest and walked past Lot 10 before walking up an escalator that took us past the Bukit Bintang Monorail station and eventually into Sungei Wang Plaza.

We walked across the first floor and rode an elevator down to the surface level where we walked across Jalan Bulan 1 and in the end walked into Plaza Low Yat. We took another elevator up to the second floor and walked into Sri Computers to look for several IT related items.

In the end we got two of the four items on our list, namely a new wireless keyboard and mouse by Logitech as well as a 4-port USB hub. We left Plaza Low Yat and entered Sungei Wang Plaza, eventually walking along a footbridge across Jalan Sultan Ismail and making it down to the ground floor. We then turned left back onto Jalan Walter Granier then right onto Lorong Walter Granier where we arrived back at the Airbnb.

Later that evening at half past five we left the Airbnb meaning to head to the Pavilion Crystal Fountain to watch a Unity Walk, but a few drops of rain forced us into SB Corner. Sure enough the drops of rain turned into a downpour, so we spent the next forty-five minutes sipping on Teh Tarik.

Certain that the walk would have been called off we headed back to the Airbnb, and a little while later headed out again to Da Long Yi Hotpot just a few minutes away on foot.

We spent an awesome evening there, so be sure to catch our next video.

After dinner we went on an impromptu walkabout that took us along Jalan Imbi then onto Jalan Sultan Ismail. We walked northwest past the Parkroyal Hotel and Lot 10 again before we reached the intersection with Jalan Bukit Bintang.

Here we turned right onto Jalan Bukit Bintang and headed to the vicinity of Starhill Square to watch the much talked about 3D anamorphic show of a Golden Dragon across two giant LED screens between Pavilion Elite and fahrenheit88.

We then resumed our walkabout headed east along Jalan Bukit Bintang before ultimately onto Jalan Imbi headed southeast. We had come full circle as we turned left and back onto Lorong Walter Granier, and eventually arrived at Bintang Fairlane Residences.

We will be checking out tomorrow.
