    We took a Grab(16MR) from the Textile Museum to this hilltop temple. It was being dressed up with lanterns for New Years that extended to the side chapels. It's a worthwhile spot with lots of visitors and easy to get the next Grab(8MR) to the Mid Valley Megamall/Gardens Mall for lunch.

    Had a good experience.
    Located inside China town, very close to a Chinese temple.

    Locals and tourists alike visit this place. It is very intriguing. The structure itself is beautiful. Staff are very helpful and friendly. It’s free to enter and get a free ‘onsie’ at the entrance so you are properly covered. When you get there, there’s a QR code so you can register to enter the mosque, which only takes a minute or two. There are interesting exhibits, such as explaining religious figures in the Quran, science in the Quran, and important aspects in the life of Islam

    This place is very large and the architecture is very beautiful. When you come, there will be staff who will provide you with clothes and headscarf.
    There will be a guide to introduce you to this place. They speak very clearly and so friendly. They also show you shooting locations and help you take your pictures.
    And everything is free.
    So, Masjid Wilayah Persekutuan is a great place and is a place worth visiting.

    A must visit Chinese temple if you happen to visit to Chinatown in KL city. Nice authentic feel, people were putting candles, whole atmosphere was serene and peaceful. Colourful courtyard and idols were a nice sight.

    The Masjid As-Syakirin is a mosque very close to KLCC park and the Petronas Towers. Set on a small hill, the mosque is a beautiful example of Malaysian modern architecture blended with traditional Malay and Arab styles. The building and especially the main prayer hall has a very symmetrical design. The pillars each end in an umbrella like capital that form a continuous structure to form the roof. The building is already well lit with an open structure, and this is accentuated by the many translucent green glass domes spread over the roof, capped by a single dome in the centre of the roof that looks a little like an upside down bowl. A pretty building, but don’t go out of the way to see it unless you’re already planning on going to KLCC. It’s a pity that the area surrounding the mosque is being redeveloped. It won’t be long before the pretty roof is hidden from view of the skyscrapers.

    This small Chinese temple is a remarkable institution at Kuala Lumpur's Chinatown. Nicely maintained, it is a small place to understand the history of Chinese immigration in the Malaysian capital. Fortunately it is not a touristy place.

    Lord Ganesha being my Savior over decades, I can’t imagine visiting KL without paying a visit to this temple. Very very powerful deity and if you are sincere in your prayers to him, all your prayers are always blessed by this great deity. Trust him and step forward, you will be sure that even if you encounter any problems, it will all be sorted out by your utmost faith on this deity.

    We are very happy to be there with my daughter, it is warmly welcoming.
    The building recently more look nice and is a lot more spacious than before.
    With the beautiful more modern stained glass panels either side of the altar. The church is attached to a fairly large Christian Centre. It is easy to find. Great view to the world tallest building in front of the Church. There is a peaceful place for all Christian’s families.

    Tucked away in bustling Kuala Lumpur lies a hidden gem - the Chan She Shu Yuen Clan Ancestral Hall. Step inside its doors to embark on an illuminating journey through Malaysian Chinese heritage. Spread across two compact yet impactful rooms, captivating exhibits chronicle the remarkable achievements and resilience of this community.

    In the first room, walls lined with visionary leaders, innovators and icons pay tribute to influential Malaysian Chinese who have left an indelible impact across diverse fields - from business to culture. Their stories inspire and humble.

    The second room unravels the hall's own history - tales of community spirit and evolution that transformed this space into a beacon of pride. Unexpectedly, it also houses a marriage registration office where love and legacy intertwine as couples register their union.

    While the website mentions free entry, there is a small RM5 fee, so come prepared with change. Beyond the exhibits, the hall's striking architecture mirrors the community's ability to artfully blend tradition and progress.

    Nice temple, and the priests are very accomodative. They understand the different rituals of Indians and don't blink an eye if you do something different to local customs.

    The history of the church dates to 1887, a simple timber building erected to accommodate Anglican worshippers in the area at the time. The foundation stone of the present building was laid in 1894, a larger church required to accommodate a growing congregation and consecrated in 1895. There have been various alterations and additions over subsequent years and in 1983 the church was proclaimed the Cathedral Church of St Mary the Virgin. It was designated a National Heritage Building in 2014. The church design is based on Early English Gothic architecture. We didn't manage to gain admittance on the day with exterior scaffolding being erected and the building closed to the public.

    I used to take the monorail from my hotel to the KL Central when I came across this pristine temple dedicated to Lord Hanuman and decided to pay a visit one day.

    I got down and walked towards the temple and had a blissful darshan of Lord Hanuman.
