TRX, short for Tun Razak Exchange, is Kuala Lumpur's purpose-built financial district. It is a brand-new 70-acre precinct of banking and office towers, a signature elevated park, luxury residences and The Exchange TRX mall, positioned right next to the traditional city centre and Bukit Bintang.
Transport is the standout strength here. The MRT Tun Razak Exchange station is a major underground interchange between the Kajang Line and the Putrajaya Line, connected directly by underground link to The Exchange TRX mall, which means you can reach Bukit Bintang, KLCC, Bangsar South or the Putrajaya corridor without driving. Jalan Tun Razak and the SMART Tunnel are on the doorstep, giving quick road access across the city and toward the airport highways.
Lifestyle centres on The Exchange TRX, a large mall with more than 400 shops and eateries, plus the rooftop TRX City Park for green space that is genuinely rare in central KL. International dining, hotels and grade-A offices are within the precinct itself, while Bukit Bintang's retail and Jalan Alor food scene are minutes away. As a newly built district, some surrounding plots and amenities are still maturing, so expect ongoing construction nearby for a while.
On price, the new launch we currently track in TRX sits at around RM1,280,000. That will vary with tower, floor, view and unit type, so treat it as an indicative figure rather than a firm quote. Given how fast this district is being built out, it is worth comparing what is launching now against other central KL projects, and WhatsApp Henry for the live pricing and package details.
TRX is squarely an investor and professional own-stay play. The financial-district positioning, direct MRT interchange and integrated mall support tenant demand from bankers, expats and corporate staff, with realistic gross yields in a moderate band for prime central KL. Be clear-eyed about the trade-offs: entry prices are high, the area is dense and still under construction in parts, and it is not a spacious, family-suburb environment.
