REXKL

Interesting place and nice place for jalan jalan. Very good and unique. I have buy some book and souvenir back. Foto bagus. And there are food court. Western mainly I look. Also look have a good cafe professional. Worth to come here.

When you come to REXKL, you’ll notice it’s packed with young, trendy people. The first floor is full of cool food stalls, a live performance space, and even a super unique bookstore, so there’s always something fun to explore. It’s also one of those spots where every corner feels Instagram-worthy, perfect for snapping a few photos while you hang out.

It’s a really small space, not sure why I expected it to be bigger. Food Court at the bottom floor - it’s like a food truck concept, with smash burgers (heard it’s really good!), pizza (I had a slice, it was 7/10), some Italian food and matcha/coffee. Decent offerings but limited seats. Oh yes. Please also have their ramen there 8.5/10, so yummy! Second floors are thrift stores and vintage shops. Really nothing much to buy. There’s a Photo Booth there, which many people were queueing for. Third floor is still pretty empty, but you can head up to the bookstore there which is extremely claustrophobic. It looks bigger in pictures but it felt really musty in there with limited aircon and tons of people trying to get the Instagram shot :’) If you manage to survive, the books were going at pretty good deal for buy 4 get 1 free! Overall, I would think it’s worth a visit but don’t plan your entire day around it.

Just happened to explore Central Market, walked around Petaling Street, and ended up at this place — didn’t even know it was so hyped, but it was totally fun to visit! There are plenty of antique shops inside and a maze-like BookXcess that’s perfect for aesthetic photos. We didn’t buy or eat anything, but it’s definitely a cool place to stop by.

REXKL is such a creative and vibrant space! The transformation from an old cinema into a cultural hub is impressive. It’s packed with indie bookstores, art spaces, food stalls, and unique events. The vibe is very artsy and youthful—perfect for hanging out, exploring local creativity, or just chilling with friends. A must-visit spot in Kuala Lumpur if you love culture and books.

Many influencers coming for photos here. I found a ring making class in the upstairs at the book store that was so nice to do on a rainy afternoon. Was one of the highlights of my whole trip. Cara workshop I think is the name. The girls there were so sweet and patient. I think I paid around 120ringgit for a ring and the workshop

A happening spot. An old building with a modern design, typical of creative young people. The bookstore is on the top floor, and downstairs are numerous eateries, a minimarket, and a pop-up store for local art. Unfortunately, it's not stroller-friendly. The stairs are steep and there's no elevator. Those bringing strollers can hang out at Stellar Coffee or the food court on the ground floor.

extremely cool little shopping building in the middle of chinatown!! there are a bunch of vintage/retro stores that are super thoughtfully curated. the shops were kind of reminiscent of all the best parts of nakano broadway in tokyo if you've ever been. the bookstore was also really cool to see and very instagrammable lol
