KUALA LUMPUR : JALAN AYER PANAS

Jalan Ayer Panas in Setapak, Kuala Lumpur left many bittersweet memories in my life. This is where I spent my school days from 1974-1978, namely at Setapak High School or Sekolah Menengah Tinggi Setapak.


The name Ayer Panas or Air Panas, in case you don't know, actually comes from a hot springs which was very popular in the 60s and 70s. 

The Hot spring is locate about half a kilometre from the junction of Jalan Air Panas and Jalan Genting Kelang. 

In the 1970s, while studying at Setapak High School, my friends and I used to stop by here on our way home for a hot bath. 





While working with the Heart Foundation of Malaysia, I had conducted health screenings at Taman Air Panas for three consecutive years, namely in 2014, 2015, and 2016.

Getting There - Ayer Panas:
Best way is to drive towards Hulu Kelang in the direction of Zoo Negara. When you pass Setapak town go straight till you pass the Setapak Police Station. After the Police Station, keep right till you get to a traffic lights. This is the turn into Air Panas.
