Independence Square

Dataran Merdeka

Independence Square (Malay: Dataran Merdeka) is a square situated in front of the Sultan Abdul Samad Building. It was formerly known as the Selangor Club Padang or simply the Padang (meaning "field" in Malay) and was used as the cricket green of the Selangor Club (now the Royal Selangor Club). It was here that the Union Flag was lowered and the Malaysian flag hoisted for the first time at midnight on 31 August 1957. Since then, the Independence Square has been the usual venue for the annual Independence Day Parade.

Central Market

It was founded in 1888 and originally used as a wet market, while the current Art Deco style building was completed in 1937. It has been classified as a Heritage Site by the Malaysian Heritage Society, and it is now a landmark for Malaysian culture and heritage. The Central Market Kuala Lumpur is arranged in a stall concept, representing the traditional market in Kuala Lumpur since the 1800s. Travellers can scroll through the many sections within the Central Market, from the Lorong Melayu, Straits Chinese, and Lorong India, located on the west wing. The second floor hosts a food court, offering an array of food. Notable are two-storey and single-storey buildings resembling the kampong-style houses representing the many ethnic groups living harmoniously in Kuala Lumpur.

Sri Mahamariamman Temple

The Sri Mahamariamman Temple is the oldest Hindu temple in Kuala Lumpur. Founded in 1873, it is situated at the edge of Chinatown in Jalan Bandar (formerly High Street). In 1968, a new structure was built, featuring the ornate 'Raja Gopuram' tower in the style of South Indian temples. From its inception, the temple provided an important place of worship for early Indian immigrants and is now an important cultural and national heritage. Built in the South Indian style, the temple's most outstanding feature is the impressive 5-tiered gopuram (tower). It is the tallest structure in the temple. The dramatic 22.9 m (75 ft) high pyramid-shaped gate tower is decorated with depictions of Hindu gods sculpted by artisans from southern India.

Guan Di Temple

Kuan Ti Temple

Kuala Lumpur Guandi Temple (shortened as KL Guandi Temple, Chinese: 吉隆坡关帝庙), or Kuala Lumpur Emperor Guan Temple, also known as the Kuala Lumpur Kuan Ti Temple, is a Malaysia-based Taoist temple. Founded in 1887 (another way of saying 1888), it is one of the oldest temples in Malaysia. Not available for sitting in meditation. In the early years of its establishment, Kuala Lumpur Guandi Temple was dedicated to handling affairs of the Ethnic Chinese. This is where the legendary 59kg copper Guan Dao (Chinese pole weapon) is located. Many have been continuously swarming this temple as they believed that the sword possesses a special power to bless and protect a person if he/she touches or lifts it.

Medan Pasar

Medan Pasar (also known as Old Market Square in English) is a public square. It was originally a market and was one of the earliest market in Kuala Lumpur built by Ye Yalai, the pioneer of Kuala Lumpur. One of the first sites to be developed. Before the independence of Malaysia, this place has always been a lively commercial market square. After a hundred years, the traces of the old market have disappeared and brought in, but the three-storey century-old buildings left over from the British colonial period on both sides of the square are still there to witness the elegance of that year. It has now become the main bus transfer station as well as a tourist attraction in the Kuala Lumpur. In the centre of the square is the Clock Tower built in Art Deco style. Designed by Arthur Oakley Coltman, the tower was built to commemorate the coronation of George VI in 1937. The memorial plaques mentioning the English king were removed after Malaysia's independence.
