Hidden behind the city's tall buildings, Liku-Likoo is a rustic café that's just a short walk from Bukit Bintang

The café occupies a building that was abandoned for almost 30 years before it was carefully restored. Instead of renovating away its weathered charm, the café chose to embrace its original character.

With its raw brick walls, exposed beams, and soft lighting, the space feels like a quiet, aesthetic post-apocalyptic hideout.

The holes in the brick walls, paired with brown, wooden furniture and a dark metal staircase, give the space even more character.

There's a roofless area with ceiling fans where you can sit under the sky, surrounded by trees that add a calm, breezy feel.

You'll also find a corner filled with worn-out medicine cabinets, each marked with old Chinese prescriptions, and an old swing you can sit on while enjoying your food.
