More of Kuala Lumpur

The National Mosque, which opened in 1965, is a striking blend of traditional and modern architecture and can accommodate 15,000 people. 




The Railway Administration Building and nearby Train Station were erected in the early 1900's and offer an interesting mix of eastern and western architectural styles. The Station now serves as a railway museum and the Administration Building houses various public offices.



 
 
The National Museum has several interesting displays highlighting the growth of Malaysia and its interaction throughout history with other eastern as well as western cultures.

The Sri Mahamariamman Temple is the country's oldest Hindu temple and is dedicated to Lord Ganesha and Lord Muruga.



 

From the observation deck in the Petronas Towers there are beautiful views of one spire from the other.
