6. Kluang Street Art (Bat Town)

Somewhere downtown is a surprisingly stunning Kluang attraction!

Of course, this is none other than the colorful mural street in Kluang!

About 24 different wall murals and 3D art adorn the back lanes and alleyways of Jalan Dato Teoh Siew Khor.

Some background on the murals:

• The murals are the result of an event by the local council to engage local and international artists to help beautify Kluang!
• The many creative murals showcase a variety of typical Malaysian scenes, coffee, local food and oddly enough, bats!
• Why Bats? Because Kluang owes its name to the local fruit bats which are keluang in Malay.

You need at least an hour to fully appreciate all the time put in by the artists to bring the old street back to life!

And if you feel a need to quench your thirst, there are an abundance of quaint little cafes and stores to do just that!
