 The Train Station by gnh Moorish architecture, that's what they call this famous looking train station of Kuala Lumpur. Perhaps the only attractive thing about the train station is the look, as the trains themselves are a great disapointment - old dilapidated, frequent delays, slow-moving and of course NOISY. Don't look into the toilets yet ! They were horrible the last time I took the train ( 30 years ? ) but maybe now they're better -- keep me informed if you can. Leave a Comment

 Staircase rising into a mosque sanctuary by Quero KL has a lot of interesting architecture. Of course there are the towers. Looking down on rooftops does nothing for me, but most people like the experience. It is generally possible to go about halfway up the twin towers to the "bridge" level; alternatively, you can go all the way up into the big tv tower, Menara KL, to the revolving restaurant. Besides these two, some of my favorites are the Istana Budaya (Culture Palace), the National Library, the central post office complex (looks as if it's covered with lace featuring an islamic star motif), the Telekom buiding (brings to mind a giant sail), and the new Masjid Wilayah Persekutuan (Federal District Mosque), which are all modern. For older buildings see the original KL mosque, Masjid Jamek, (at the confluence of two rivers and the site of an early tin mining settlement), the original British colonial buildings at Dataran Merdeka (Independance Square), and the Buddhist and Hindu temples in Chinatown. Check the Travelogue for photos of some of these gems. Leave a Comment Address: All over the cityDirections: Library and Istana Budaya on Jalan Tun Razak; Masjid Jamek between Independence Square and Chinatown; Menara KL in Golden Triangle area; Telekom building at Lembah Pantai.

 Blue actually not purple... by coceng Another tower that you could only see in KL is the Telekom Tower. It resembles a slanted cut of a bamboo trunk. 55 storeys & 310m high. Completed in 2001. This is Telekom Malaysia head office. Telekom is the biggest telecommunication company in this country. This whole building is blue in colour but I turned into my own art print. I am just being arty on my own country. Period. Thank you. Leave a Comment Address: Jalan Pantai Bahru

 Kuala Lumpur Memorial Library (old building) by mansionion The Kuala Lumpur Library is formerly known as the Kuala Lumpur Memorial Library. It is housed in a modern building in the vicinity of Dataran Merdeka within the colonial district of KL. The library served as a one stop reference centre on Kuala Lumpur and is the first in the city to use advanced technological services such as the MyKad (Malaysia's smart ID card for its citizen) for registering members as well as MEPS Cash for cashless transactions. Previously, the library used to occupy a historical building that is dating back to 1909 next door. It is not suprising then that the new library building borrows its architectural inspiration from the the old building as well as other buildings within the vicinity of Dataran Merdeka. Opening hours: Tuesday - Saturday: 9.30am - 4.30pm Sunday: 9.30am - 12.30pm Closed on Monday Leave a Comment Address: No. 1 Jalan Raja, Kuala LumpurPhone: +603 26924 7802Directions: Within Dataran Merdeka area, look for the building with two large domes.

The international departures is one of the most relaxing area while waiting to board on the plane.

 National Palace by beautyinheart Istana Negara (National Palace) built upon a hill near downtown Kuala Lumpur, is the official residence of the Yang DiPertuan Agong (The King). The Islamic architecture of the palace and its scenic surroundings attract streams of tourists. Leave a Comment

 LUTH Building by coceng KL can boast some of fine & amazing architectures which can only be found in this country or any part of the world. There are too many to list here but one of my favourites is the Lembaga & Urusan Tabung Haji (LUTH) Building in KL. Well, if you decide to go to this building & take some photos, please don't mention 'Luth', you have to mention the full name. Leave a Comment Address: LUTH Building, 201 Jalan Tun Razak

by voyageur2 Kuala Lumpur has many places of interest. Among them i can recommend you national monuments. They reflect both colonial and independence periods... In fact you will feel that rich history everywhere in city. For Muslim visitors visiting a glorious mosque in Kuala Lumpur is a nice experience. Its capacity and architecture gives you a sense of eternity. Leave a Comment

by Guantanamera Another stunning piece of Kuala Lumpur's classical Moorish architecture, part of a vogue of neo-Moorish design that was brought in by British architects around the 19th century... I like the Moorish aesthetic a great deal, reminds one of the Arabian Nights fantasies and that kind of thing... The towers could serve not only as a protected lookout post for military purposes, but also would make an excellent place to imprison and subjugate a whole assortment of exotic Rebeccas and Rapunzels, as was the custom in the Middle Ages...
