Midnight Pasar Malam in Danau Kota


If you are new to Wangsa Maju and have decided to stay around Gombak, Wangsa Maju or Genting Kelang, and are mostly a nocturnal creature with a penchant for shopping, you might like to know that there is a place for you to frequent.

Known as Bazar Larut Malam, or Midnight Bazaar, this special pasar malam starts from 9pm to 3am, nightly except Thursdays - at least it used to, until recently when every day is bazaar day.



The bazaar takes up the entire stretches of roads around the Shell and Petronas stations and about some of the shophouses' lanes near the the main hawker complex in Danau Kota.

The traders here are all Malays selling a variety of goods, such as bags, attire, shoes, car spareparts, and even on rare occasions, Protons. Yes, the car.

Prices are so-so and you can bargain. Goods mostly come from Indonesia, Thailand or China.
