Features.
Connaught Night Market.
Located along Jalan Cheras, Connaught Night Market is open only on Wednesdays every week from 5:00 pm to 1:00 am. The night market serves the needs of many of the ethnic Chinese residents here who come from all parts of Cheras, as well as UCSI University students. The night market is primarily known for the variety of Chinese food available, from stinky tofu to asam laksa. It also contributes to a massive traffic jam to the residents here, leading to some resentments among folks of Taman Connaught. Furthermore, as there is a lack of vacant parking spaces, the reckless parking behaviour on the highway adds to the risk of car accidents.
