Things to do in Petaling Jaya, no research required

Petaling Jaya sits next to the capital and plays by different rules: less tourist trail, more where people actually eat. Chuan Yue De Cuisine has a serious local following and is worth the trip out on its own. NextGen Theme Park covers a full day if you’re travelling with kids. For something quieter, Le Masterpiece Art Studio holds up the arts side, and The Rebel Penguin of Whimzy Town handles the cocktail. With a solid museum count as well, PJ turns out to have far more going on than its reputation as a suburb suggests.
