    Wow those temples are beautiful. Glad you got to share such a variety. The alley artwork was amazing. Also really loved your background music choices in this video.

    As ever we are both enjoying your Malaysian Vlogs, especially as we are visiting next June/July.
    On a side note can you confirm the make of the zipped daypack Heather has been using? I’d like to buy one for my wife!
    Keep up the great content!

      Believe it or not, but it's by Pacsafe! It looks like they've discontinued the exact one I use 😭 but it looks like Amazon still has a few left in black! I genuinely love it, especially the hidden back zipper, which I keep my phone in. Here's a link to it! amzn.to/3N5ErfN

    Should ask the temple about the barbed wire. Why they installed it. Did people steal the antiques inside?

    "Is KL's Chinatown SAFE to visit?", a weird title.

    • @keangwooichoo6138
      @keangwooichoo6138 ปีที่แล้ว

      Click bait. I wonder what is not safe there? Foreign beggars? Homeless people?

    • @TalesFromOurPocket
      @TalesFromOurPocket  ปีที่แล้ว

      The truth is that we normally change our title a few times, to see what works and what doesn't! We did see a fair number of social media posts (in groups) about how Chinatown is seedy and rundown - which is indeed different than "safety" so we'll probably retitle it. 😊👌

      @TalesFromOurPocket it is run down because the gov here cannot force building owners to paint or repair it unlike singapore whereby their little india and chinatown looked spotless. They will be fined.
      Secondly, 2nd and 3rd generation owners do not care about their grandpa's properties. All they want is rental revenue. They cannot tear it down as it is heritage buildings.
      3rdly, painting is expensive because of the elements it can only last 4 or 5 years(the paint job).
      You can see it all over malaysia eg ipoh, taiping, penang, melaka. But surprisingly smaller towns looked better eg kluang, muar, kuantan, Kuala terengganu. It is those larger cities or town having run down looks.
