- National Mosque (Masjid Negara) - The National Mosque of Malaysia, known as Masjid Negara Malaysia in Malay, is located in Kuala Lumpur. It can accommodate 15,000 worshippers and is set within 13 acres (53,000 m2) of gardens. Notable features include a 73-meter (240 ft) minaret and a main roof shaped like a 16-pointed star. The design prominently features the umbrella, a symbol of the tropics, with the main roof resembling an open umbrella and the minaret’s cap a folded one. The concrete main roof’s folded plates creatively allow for the large spans needed in the main hall. Reflecting pools and fountains are scattered throughout the grounds. Completed in 1965, the mosque represents a bold, modern use of reinforced concrete, symbolizing the aspirations of a newly independent nation.
- Merdeka Square - Independence Square, or Dataran Merdeka in Malay, is located in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, in front of the Sultan Abdul Samad Building. Previously known as the Selangor Club Padang or simply the Padang, it served as the cricket green for the Selangor Club, now the Royal Selangor Club. It was here that the Union Flag was lowered and the Malaysian flag was raised for the first time at midnight on August 31, 1957. Since then, Independence Square has been the traditional site for the annual Independence Day Parade.
- Thean Hou Temple - The Thean Hou Temple, known in Chinese as 乐圣岭天后宫/樂聖嶺天后宮, is a six-tiered temple dedicated to the Chinese sea goddess Mazu, located in Kuala Lumpur. It sits on 1.67 acres (6,758 m2) of land atop Robson Heights on Lorong Bellamy, overlooking Jalan Syed Putra. Completed in 1987 and officially opened in 1989, the temple was built by the Hainanese community in Malaysia and is owned and managed by the Selangor and Federal Territory Hainan Association.
- Chinatown - Chinatown is a lively district in Kuala Lumpur where visitors can immerse themselves in Chinese-Malaysian culture. Stroll along the pedestrian-friendly Kasturi Walk to explore vibrant shops, temples, and markets offering everything from clothing to souvenirs. Don’t miss the famous Petaling Street Market and Central Market, as well as the stunning Buddhist and Hindu temples. Be sure to try the delicious street food, such as nasi lemak (coconut rice dish), pisang goreng (banana fritters), and teh tarik (“pulled” tea).
- Central Market Kuala Lumpur - Central Market Kuala Lumpur is situated at Jalan Tun Tan Cheng Lock (Foch Avenue) and the pedestrian-only section of Jalan Hang Kasturi (Rodger Street), just a few minutes from Petaling Street and next to the Klang River. Established in 1888 as a wet market, the current Art Deco style building was completed in 1937. It has been designated a Heritage Site by the Malaysian Heritage Society and is now a landmark for Malaysian culture and heritage.
- Batu Caves - The limestone forming Batu Caves is estimated to be around 400 million years old. Some cave entrances were used as shelters by the indigenous Temuan people, a tribe of Orang Asli. By 1860, Chinese settlers began mining guano for fertilizing their vegetable gardens. The caves gained fame after being documented by colonial authorities like Daly and Syers, and American naturalist William Hornaday in 1878. Batu Caves became a place of worship thanks to K. Thamboosamy Pillai, an Indian Tamil trader, who was inspired by the vel-shaped entrance of the main cave to dedicate a temple to Murugan. In 1890, Pillai, who also founded the Sri Mahamariamman Temple in Kuala Lumpur, installed the murti (consecrated statue) of Sri Murugan Swami in what is now known as the Temple Cave. Since 1892, the Thaipusam festival has been celebrated there in the Tamil month of Thai (late January/early February).
- Brickfields - In 1881, Kuala Lumpur was devastated by a flood following a disastrous fire, which destroyed the town’s wooden and thatched structures. In response, Frank Swettenham, the British Resident of Selangor, mandated that buildings be constructed of brick and tile. Consequently, Kapitan Yap Ah Loy acquired a large tract of land, now known as Brickfields, to establish a brick industry that would aid in rebuilding Kuala Lumpur.
