Photographing the Forgotten Side of Kuala Lumpur

There are few places in Southeast Asia as vibrant and memorable as Kuala Lumpur. A diverse modern metropolis that still retains more than a few signs of the past, KL is a street photographer's dream.

But what about those places off-the-beaten path? VICE partnered up with Uber and Canon to shed some light on the places where even locals rarely go. By analyzing their rider data, Uber uncovered three locations with the lowest number of passenger drop offs, but the coolest stuff to see and do. They then sent a team of photographers out to spend the afternoon snapping away, capturing a side of the city few get to see. Here's some of our favorite pics.

We teamed up with Uber and Canon because we know that even when the desire for foreign adventure is strong, it's so hard to break from the familiar back home. Uber's passenger data showed that young urbanites revisit the same places over and over again.

So what happens when you break out of this rut and head out for a photowalk? That's exactly what we were interested in finding out. Check out our stories behind some of the best, but least visited, spots in Singapore and Kuala Lumpur.
