I've been to Singapore's Chinatown as well and I would say Singapore's Chinatown is more comprehensive in terms of Chinese products if compared to KL's Chinatown. You may disappoint on this as KL's Chinatown is larger which includes few roads that adjacent to each other and there are more than just Chinese products. Anyway, you should see it yourself and sure you will still love it. :) @Uma,

I will go to Chinatown on the 2nd evening as I had originally planned and had been wondering about (when U heard about CNY) until I saw your reply. I also plan to go some malls, such as Times Square, KLCC, Sungai Wang and Bukit Bintang Plaza as they are closer to where I will stay. But as a tourist who really liked Singapore's Chinatown, I really look forward to Chinatown. Cecil, thanks for such a warm welcome. :-) Your response is really helpful.

Welcome! Yes. Chinatown is still open during Chinese New Year but some of the stalls would be closed. The best bet is to visit it on the 2nd Feb which is the new year eve for Chinese here. It would be the most crowded night before new year and you can find all sorts of items here especially Chinese foods, fashion goods and Chinese New Year decorative. However, you shouldn't limit yourself to Chinatown only as there are many shops selling those items you need in most shopping malls in KL. So go explore our shopping malls such as Sungai Wang, Time Square, Mid-Valley, 1-Utama and so on... :) @Uma,

The dates are 2nd to 5th Feb. My first planned destination was Chinatown. Is it open to tourists during the Chinese New Year? Could you recommend a date during my trip that would be most suitable? I was hoping to find chinese jewelry, showpiece items, Buddhist items etc. Thanks, Uma Hi,
