The station is named after the nearby [Central Market](/source/Central_Market%2C_Kuala_Lumpur) (known as Pasar Seni or "Art Market" in [Malay](/source/Malay_language)) and is located near [Petaling Street](/source/Petaling_Street) and the area known as the Chinatown of Kuala Lumpur. The station is made up of two parts - the older elevated Kelana Jaya Line station and platforms which opened on 1 September 1998[2] and the newer underground Kajang Line station and platforms which opened on 17 July 2017.[3] A pedestrian bridge and escalators link the paid areas of both stations, allowing commuters to conveniently transfer between the Kelana Jaya Line and the Kajang Line, while two unpaid linkways connect the Pasar Seni station complex directly with the [Kuala Lumpur](/source/Kuala_Lumpur_railway_station) station, which is served by the [KTM Komuter](/source/KTM_Komuter) and [KTM ETS](/source/KTM_ETS) services.[4] The station is located next to the Jalan Sultan Mohamed bus hub with buses to [Petaling Jaya](/source/Petaling_Jaya), [Shah Alam](/source/Shah_Alam), [Klang](/source/Klang_(city)), [Puchong](/source/Puchong) and [Subang Jaya](/source/Subang_Jaya) as well as [Go KL buses](/source/Go_KL_City_Bus). Pedestrian bridges also link the station with the Kuala Lumpur General Post Office and the [Dayabumi](/source/Dayabumi) building. ## Station features and history View of the elevated LRT station and the glass entrances of the underground MRT station. The Pasar Seni LRT platform. View of platform level of the MRT station. ### LRT Kelana Jaya Line station The elevated Pasar Seni LRT station is served by the [LRT Kelana Jaya Line](/source/LRT_Kelana_Jaya_Line), a [light rapid transit](/source/Light_rapid_transit) (LRT) system, and began operations on 1 September 1998 as the terminus of Phase One of what was then known as the PUTRA LRT system.[2] The line would extend to [Gombak](/source/Gombak_LRT_station) in 1999 as part of Phase Two. The LRT station has two elevated levels; a concourse level and a platform level above it, with an island platform configuration with two platforms. The station entrance is on the Concourse Level which is accessed via escalators, stairs and lifts from Jalan Tun Tan Cheng Lock and Jalan Sultan Mohamed. Also at the Concourse Level are the fare gates, ticketing machines, Customer Service Counter, convenience store and bakery. The link bridges to the [Kuala Lumpur](/source/Kuala_Lumpur_railway_station) station, Kuala Lumpur General Post Office and Dayabumi are also at the Concourse Level. A second air-conditioned link bridge to the old Kuala Lumpur station has been added since November 2019. The ground level of the station is occupied by several bus lanes of the Jalan Sultan Mohamed bus hub. There is also a Rapid Bus Customer Service Office. Covered walkways link the station with the bus hub. ### MRT Kajang Line station The underground [mass rapid transit](/source/Mass_rapid_transit) (MRT) station began operations on 17 July 2017 when Phase Two of the [MRT Kajang Line](/source/MRT_Kajang_Line) was opened. The station was constructed at the site formerly occupied by the Klang Bus Stand, Plaza Wawasan Complex and the UO Shopping Centre. These three buildings were demolished in 2012 to make way for the MRT station to be constructed. The station has three underground levels - Concourse Level, Plant Room Level (not accessible to public) and Platform Level - beneath the ground level plaza. The design of the station entrance buildings at the ground level is based on the [quartz](/source/Quartz) found at Bukit Tabur quartz range in [Gombak](/source/Gombak), [Selangor](/source/Selangor), while the theme for the station's interior design is "Confluence", taken from the confluence between the [Gombak](/source/Gombak_River) and [Klang](/source/Klang_River) Rivers, which is located next to [Masjid Jamek](/source/Masjid_Jamek_LRT_station), the preceding station on the Kelana Jaya Line.[1] The MRT tunnels in this station is located only 300 meters from the opening of the Kelana Jaya Line's tunnel (towards Masjid Jamek). ### LRT-MRT Link The Pasar Seni LRT and MRT stations are connected by a pedestrian bridge over Jalan Sultan Mohamed. The bridge connects directly to the paid area of the LRT station's Concourse Level. On the MRT station side, escalators, stairs and lifts connect the pedestrian bridge directly to the paid area of the MRT Concourse Level, which is the first underground level of the station. The paid-to-paid link is labelled as Entrance C of the station. It however only allows commuters to transfer between the LRT and MRT, and does not allow anyone out of the stations. To accommodate this pedestrian bridge, the LRT station had to undergo some renovation. Besides removing the balustrade at the Concourse Level, the LRT station fare gates were also relocated closer to the entrance. A new service counter was also built replacing the older service counter. ### Station layout L2 LRT Platform Level Platform 1: 5 Kelana Jaya Line towards KJ1 Gombak (→) Island platform, Doors will open on the right Platform 2: 5 Kelana Jaya Line towards KJ37 Putra Heights (←) L1 LRT Concourse Fare gates, Ticketing Machines, LRT Station Control, LRT Customer Service Office, LRT station entrance, Shops, Paid-to-paid pedestrian bridge between LRT and MRT stations, Pedestrian bridge to KA02 Kuala Lumpur station.
