Consejos de expertos
- Wear comfortable shoes, as the streets are mostly explored on foot.
- The best photo moments are in the early morning or late evening, when the light plays on the murals.
- At the street food stalls, it is worth trying local treats such as cendol or laksa soup.
- The daytime crowd grows large; avoid peak hours to enjoy a more peaceful experience.
