'Escape' from Pudu Jail

Continued from A visit to Pudu Jail.

Having spent some time inside the room painted with some sort of Arabic calligraphy I walked towards the end of the open corridor.

From the window I could see another wing of Pudu Jail.

Looking to the right is a staircase which should lead to the wing... I think.

But I don't have time to explore all the nooks and crannies here. I decided to take the staircase besides which leads down.

Time to go back to the open...

And back to civilisation.

As I walked  towards the main entrance (I came in from an opening in the rear, remember?) I could see remains of what could be the jail's recreational buildings and offices...

The main entrance. That's the point from where inmates, offenders and visitors had to enter. Properly, that is.

A look behind. This is the sight that should greet people if they came in from the right way.

Now, the main gates are chained and lock. But I do notice the small door which could be opened.

Ah. 'Escape' from Pudu Jail...

'Escape' from a more than a century-old establishment which I learned later was built on a Chinese burial ground, adding more to its haunted factor!

As I looked at the walls from outside memory of the 1980s when the walls were still fresh with sceneries of the serenity of jungle and beach painted by the inmates came to mind.

Well, goodbye Pudu Jail. After three decades or so looking at it from outside I finally got to see a bit what's inside. After this I will show pictures from places up high...
