I wish Salam to everyone,
I love to use public transport every time I go to Bukit Bintang from KLCC.
I need to take →LRT Kelana Jaya Line from KLCC and then change to →MRT at Pasar Seni Station before I get off at Bukit Bintang Station.
Pasar Seni station is located near Petaling Street and also known as the Chinatown of Kuala Lumpur.

Bukit Bintang is one of the busiest areas in Kuala Lumpur. No matter day or night it will be heavy traffic congestion in this area .
There is no need to go through the traffic congestion and spend a lot of money to pay for parking at Bukit Bintang, Kuala Lumpur.
There is an MRT station and it is a convenient, comfortable and cheap way to reach the shopping malls in this area.

Getting around
Here are other options for travellers to go around Kuala Lumpur.
Train
With the recent completion of the Mass Rapid Transit (MRT), more parts of KL are now connected by rail. Apart from the MRT, other rail service include the Light Rail Transit (LRT), monorail and KTM Komuter.
The trains in the city pass through iconic attractions such as KLCC, Central Market and Muzium Negara.
If you’re on a long visit, consider purchasing the Touch ‘N’ Go card or weekly passes for cheaper fares. The card can be used on all trains, as well as RapidKL buses.
Bus
Travelling by bus in the city is a generally comfortable experience these days. Most of them are fully air conditioned and they get you to popular tourist attractions as well as quaint neighbourhoods. Look out for the free purple Go KL buses within the central business district that run along popular sites and famous shopping districts. You can also travel further on the RapidKL buses.
Taxi
Taxi is probably one of the most convenient ways to travel from one place to another in KL. Always insist on using the metre.
According to the Land Public Transport Commission, regular budget taxis (usually painted in red and white, or red and blue) charge RM3 for the first three minutes. Subsequent distance or time are charged at RM0.25 every 200m or 36 seconds.
Blue cabs (Teksi Eksekutif ) and gold cabs (Teks1M) are better for large groups.
Self drive
KL is a big city and having a car would allow travellers to get to surrounding townships such as Petaling Jaya or Shah Alam in Selangor easily. There are plenty of car rental options available online or at the airport. Driving in the city is generally safe. You might want to avoid peak hours though when traffic congestion can set you back an hour on average.
Ride hailing
Malaysia actually has a few ride-hailing options, with Grab being one of the more popular options among locals. Utilising the service is as easy as downloading an app. The downside is you would need mobile data or WiFi to operate the service. But that shouldn’t be an issue as more people are connected on their travels these days.
You can also book taxis on some of these apps.
