We chanced upon this place by accident while browsing in Petaling Street. I took a picture with the life-sized figure of Bruce Lee, then my attention was drawn to the interesting maze upstairs. If we had to pay, we would probably not have bothered. But it was free! So we made our way upstairs, ooh-ing and aah-ing at all the exhibits. Had fun posing with the giant abacus, rickshaw and old bicycle. We had a hilarious time reading about the Malaysian slangs, especially the old ones used during my father's generation! Am glad we found this place.

We found this place by accident as we tried to avoid the crowds on a rainy Saturday afternoon. I had seen an article about this place before but we did not specifically plan to visit it. The actual photo zone in Lost in Chinatown is located upstairs. In such a limited space, the photo zone is divided into three main rooms and mezzanines, with maze-like corridors. The place is home to the largest abacus in Kuala Lumpur (and I had fun reminscing my Math class where the laoshi taught me how to use abacus). There are also photos of Chinatowns around the world. In a dim room adjacent to a colourful room (where I found the abacus), photos of public figures and movie characters were hung and the room itself had sort of club-vibe somehow. The last main room was my favourite spot where guests can learn Malaysian English slangs and take picture while riding an old bike. Guests then can proceed downstairs where they have to walk through the main shopping area before leaving the premises. Overall it was a pleasure visiting the place, but I think it would be better if they could expand it and add more photo zones.

Lost In China Town (LICT) is definitely a hidden gem in the city. I visited it with my family and I found that it is an awesome place as well as a great venue to have bonding time with your loved ones. Undoubtedly I will recommend it to my friends and I'll visit it again for sure. I love the design at every corner of it and not to forget the "Maze in the Dark" will absolutely spice up your visit to LICT. You will be amazed by this incredible experiences in LICT, and it is definitely on the "must-see" list of every tourist who has ever set foot in Kuala Lumpur.

You can learn a lot about the history of Chinatown around the world and because of the many walls the room has it would qualify as a maze I guess, but don’t expect you’ll get lost in a huge dark maze. We bought the tickets for 15 ringgits because we read it was a huge deal and we were visiting Chinatown (which was another disappointment), but we were just directed in and all the lights were on, some spaces were just divided but small curtains that wouldn’t cover the light.
The few comments before me saying it’s a big deal, not so sure about it. Maybe the owners and staff wrote them?
It’s an okay activity to do and it’s kind of cheap. The place is definitely cleaner than its surroundings, suited for families or people who want to know memore on history. But that’s it. Nothing amazing.

Lot of EDUCATION and History in the Maze. Even you can take a challenge in the place.
Highly Recommended Attraction Point for all of you. Only Rm 10 for the Entrance, Worth the price! You wont want to miss it.

Nice building which represent the heart of historical place. The maze is also another attraction to teenagers who love to treasure hunt.

I am really a fan of china history and Bruce Lee. Was just walking around Petaling street casually and came upon this place by coincident. Was really surprised to see my idol Bruce lee there, so of cause I immediately tried to selfie with him.
The place is fun to look at and i would recommend my foreign friends to visit the place for many good photo opportunity. It's also a good place to escape from the heat of Petaling Street as it is fully air conditioned. The pricing is also reasonable. The only downside to it is that it is sometimes quite packed during weekends.

I saw this building by chance
Full of lanterns attracted me ~ to me near a look and found the portrait of Bruce Lee
Went in and found a lot of local culture in Malaysia, there are introduced food, language,
Attract me is inside the dialect card, very interesting.
Where the maze is also good, and not just a simple song maze, there are tasks can challenge
Not easy
If my friend from abroad, will certainly invite them to porcelain factory street, the way to this place
That feels great.
