PHOTOS: Door to Car Park to Exit

I just took these photographs to give you an idea of what I see as I walk out my unit, go to the car park, to drive out from Royal Domain.

This picture is the main entry to the my condo unit. I've placed a peep hole just for convenience, as it's always more comfortable to be able to see who's outside rather than randomly opening the door to an unwelcomed visitor.

I was maybe the first person who had this installed, but then I noticed the fashion quickly picked up, and my neighbours also did the same. Hahah! Good. Good. Just a little investment for safety. Nothing better.






This is the door bell press which comes standard with all units. I've never really installed an electronic bell because I've never really understood why would you need one, since everything will be communicated from the guardhouse via intercom.

But the truth is, when you have people sending in deliveries, it's very useful - let that be newspapers or food from takeaways.

So yes - I do admit, that I didn't spend like RM80 for a door bell. So if you come in, and you'd like a door bell...spend laa RM80 or whatever it costs for a door bell of your liking.

This is the view of the walkway from the main building of block B1 to the car park. It's more of a bridge decorated outside with plants which is visibly pleasant especially on sunny days.

Along this line, you can see many condominium units which is interlocked and secluded, quite dark and facing the car park. Sometimes I wonder why people choose condo units that don't have a view - but I guess what you gain is the privacy. As I look out, I notice that most of these units are indeed inhabited. So it's a preference things. Same like living on a high floor and a low floor. I like low floor + with-a-view. These residents prefer the seclusion and privacy that they get by living in the shadows of the building. I respect their taste. No big deal.





This is the car park where I park my car (but of course maa!). The car park is VERY well lit at night and it's very clean because it's always visited by the cleaners. As for moving around is concerned, the car's turning circle is not a problem unless you are driving a bus or a lorry (hahah!) in to the parking complex (which is illegal, of course!). Well I drive a Mitsubishi pick-up truck myself, and I've found the way they arrange the space in the parking lot to be quite organised and manoeuvrability has not been a problem for me. They've really spaced things out well. I'm a qualified civil engineer myself specialising in transportation, and I reckon that the developer has been very generous when it comes to space in the parking complex. This I cannot deny. Each condo unit is given one free parking, but you can make arrangements with the Maintenance Office for more. Of course, this will come with a bit of payment. I didn't need an extra space, because I only have one car. Visitors park in the visitor parking lots outside and around the building. Convenient.

This is the view as I drive out from the parking lot. The picture is actually quite deceiving . To be honest, it's not really as steep as it looks in the photo. The whole parking complex does look quite complicated when you're there the first time; but it'll only take a short while to get used to things. As long as you remember your parking lot number and the floor number (mine is 5b), you'll be fine.

So as you leave the car park complex, you'll take a right turn, around the condominium and you'll arrive at the guard house. This picture here is the short approach to Royal Domain's exit. You can see the Petronas Twin Towers in the background despite the lack of quality of my camera phone. The whole place is flooded with lights and colour at night. It's a beautiful view: Royal Domain, it's elder sister: Sri Putramas 1, the nearby motorway, and of course: the KL skyline.
