Kwai Chai Hong(鬼仔巷) located at Petaling Street,lorong panggung. The entrance which with the arch and bridge stands was previously occupied by Ho Kow Hainan Kopitiam and a coffee shop established in 1956. Lately moved out in year 2018 relocated to a nearby street.

                

There don't have any determinate how the moniker Kwai Chai Hong(鬼仔巷) come from. Some people said it's maybe previously this area have  "kwai chai" (ghost children ) haunt or it just a  mischievous . It also maybe this area last time have a lot different type of illegal businesses ,like  gamblers, drug addicts, drunkards and those engaging in vice activities led to its moniker.

Inside the laneway are six murals depicting the daily activities of early Chinese settlers in the area during the 1960s. It also a attract a lot of tourist take photo.
