Kuala Lumpur Cultural and Heritage Tour

Apart from the modern sky scrapers in town, there are quite a number of beautiful Heritage Buildings which remain from the British Colonial days that still stand strong in the city. By exploring on foot, you can see many of these buildings that are in the older areas of Kuala Lumpur. Starting at the Central Market (Art-Deco), you can walk towards Independence Square or Dataran Merdeka where the Sultan Abdul Samad Building (SAS) stands majestically and is the largest of the heritage buildings here. Opposite, the English Tudor styled Royal Selangor Club sits facing the SAS Building. Head on over to the old railway station to see a couple more of the Neo Moorish and Mughal designed buildings. In the old city area, many shop houses don the old pre-war structures where you get to see a mix of influences in designs from Grecian-Spanish, neo-Gothic, Victorian and even the American styles that range from 1880s till 1950s.
