Highlights

Batu Caves - Batu Caves is a renowned and popular tourist destination that is a must-visit. Situated just north of Kuala Lumpur, this limestone hill features three main caves with temples and Hindu shrines. The highlight is the large statue of a Hindu deity at the entrance, along with a steep 272-step climb that offers a breathtaking view of the City Centre’s skyline. Monkeys can often be seen playing around the caves.

P.S. The steps leading up to the caves are not accessible for wheelchairs or strollers.

Jadi Batek Gallery - Jadi Batik is one of the oldest batik and handicraft centers in Klang Valley. A visit to the gallery reveals that batik is more than just a cloth with intricate designs. Jadi is the place to go for a comprehensive experience in Malaysian batik and handicrafts.

National Mosque (Masjid Negara) - Masjid Negara is one of the city’s most prominent landmarks, featuring a unique star-shaped dome and a 73-meter high minaret. The mosque’s design blends modern architecture with traditional Islamic art, calligraphy, and ornamentation. Visitors should dress appropriately, and women are required to wear headscarves.

The River of Life - The River of Life is a notable attraction in Kuala Lumpur, located near the city’s oldest mosque, Masjid Jamek Sultan Abdul Samad. It is the meeting point of the Klang River and the Gombak River.

Dataran Merdeka - Merdeka Square, also known as Independence Square, is situated directly opposite the Sultan Abdul Samad building and next to the Royal Selangor Club. This historic site is where the Union Flag was lowered, and the Malayan flag was raised for the first time at midnight on August 31, 1957. Since then, Merdeka Square has been the venue for the Annual Independence Parade.

Sultan Abdul Samad Building - The iconic Sultan Abdul Samad building, constructed in 1890, is located in front of Merdeka Square. The building’s architecture features a distinctive Moorish design.

Thean Hou Temple - The Thean Hou Temple is a six-tiered temple dedicated to the Chinese sea goddess Mazu, located in Kuala Lumpur. It occupies 1.67 acres (6,758 m2) on Robson Heights, overlooking Jalan Syed Putra. Completed in 1987 and officially opened in 1989, the temple was built by Hainanese residents in Malaysia and is one of the largest temples in Southeast Asia.

Little India Brickfields - Brickfields originated as a brick-making center in the late 19th century after a major fire and flood devastated Kuala Lumpur in 1881. The disasters destroyed the town’s wooden and thatched structures, prompting Sir Frank Swettenham, the British Resident at the time, to mandate the use of brick and tile in building construction, thus defining the town’s purpose.

Central Market Kuala Lumpur - Central Market started as a wet market in 1888, established by Yap Ah Loy, the city’s Chinese Kapitan. It has been a significant landmark in both colonial and modern-day Kuala Lumpur. As the market grew, a permanent structure was built to accommodate all vendors. By the 1930s, the structure was further enhanced to its current façade. It’s a great place to find crafts, souvenirs, and ornaments.

Petaling Street Market - Petaling Street, also known as Chinatown KL, is a bustling area in Kuala Lumpur. Haggling is common here, and the area is usually crowded with both locals and tourists. The market is filled with numerous restaurants and food stalls serving local favorites.
