3. THIS IMPOSING BUILDING STANDS ATOP THE MAIN HILL IN PUTRAJAYA, CATCHING EYES WITH ITS PALATIAL-STYLE GREEN DOME AND STONE WALLS. FEATURING A BLEND OF ISLAMIC AND MODERN ARCHITECTURE, THE OFFICE COMPLEX IS WHERE MINISTERS AND HIGHER OFFICIALS WORK. IT IS NOT OPEN TO VISITORS, BUT YOU CAN STILL ADMIRE ITS GRANDEUR FROM THE OUTSIDE.

4. ROSE-TINTED GRANITE GIVES THE PUTRA MOSQUE ITS ICONIC PINK HUE, AN ELEGANCE THAT REFLECTS AS REMARKABLY ON THE INSIDE AS IT DOES ON THE OUTSIDE. BUILT BY THE LAKE IN 1997, THE MOSQUE CAN ACCOMMODATE UP TO 15,000 WORSHIPPERS. VISITORS WOULD STOP BY FOR PHOTOGRAPHS WITH THIS SOPHISTICATED LANDMARK, WHICH DREW INSPIRATION FROM MALAY AND MIDDLE EASTERN INFLUENCES.

7. THE IRON MOSQUE (OR TUNKU MIZAN ZAINAL ABIDIN MOSQUE) IS ANOTHER ARCHITECTURAL WONDER WORTH CHECKING OUT. CONSTRUCTED PRIMARILY FROM STEEL, “WIRE MESH” ARCHITECTURE DRAWS INSPIRATION FROM CHINESE AND GERMAN DESIGNS. UNLIKE OTHER MOSQUES IN MALAYSIA, THERE IS NO MINARET WHICH IS USED TO CALL FOR PRAYERS. FROM AFAR, IT LOOKS LIKE IT IS MADE OF METAL OR GLASS.

THERE IS A TIME CAPSULE AT THE BASE OF THE MONUMENT WHICH WILL BE OPENED IN 2020. AS YOU MOVE UP ALONG THE RAMPS OF THE MILLENNIUM MONUMENT, YOU CAN SEE SWEEPING VIEWS OF THE WATERFRONT.

10. THE MOROCCAN PAVILION DESERVES FIVE STARS FOR INSTAWORTHINESS, IF SUCH A RATING EXISTS. BUILT TO SYMBOLISE THE DIPLOMATIC TIES BETWEEN THE TWO GOVERNMENTS, THE STUNNING ARCHITECTURE AND DELICATE CRAFTSMANSHIP BEAR RESEMBLANCE TO THE VILLAGES AND IMPERIAL CITIES OF MOROCCO.

About Kuala Lumpur

Kuala Lumpur is de bruisende hoofdstad van Maleisië, waar de Petronas Towers boven Maleise, Chinese en Indiase wijken en beroemd straatvoedsel uitsteken.

De tweelingtorens van de Petronas Towers, verbonden door een skybridge, bepalen de skyline, met een aangelegd park en fonteinen aan hun voet. De KL Tower biedt vanaf zijn beboste heuvel een ander uitzicht, en het Merdekaplein, waar bij de onafhankelijkheid de nationale vlag werd gehesen, wordt omlijst door het Sultan Abdul Samad-gebouw in Moorse stijl.

Top-ranked sights in Kuala Lumpur: National Mosque of Malaysia (Masjid Negara), Thean Hou Temple, Kuala Lumpur Chinatown.
