Merdeka Square

Let's explore the colonial building and take a walk through the lawn that officially announced the independence of Malaysia

The Independence Square (Merdeka, Independence Square) was once the center of Malaysia during the colonial period. It was surrounded by the old administrative building, once used to be the cricket ground of Royal Selangor Club. The British flag was lowered in 1957, the first time the flag of Malaysia flew, it means that the UK became independent from Britain. Today, in the square, annual Independence Day celebration of the country, concerts and other major events will be held.

Walk through the length of the square and appreciate colonial architecture. The most impressive thing so far is the building of Sultan Abdul Samad in 1897. Designed by Arthur C. Norman, he is inspired from architecture in North India. In the red and white brick building there is a complex arch, a dome turret, and a clock tower 134 ft high.

Royal Selangor Club is opposite Sultan Abdul Samed Building. Built in the second half of the nineteenth century, this Tudor style resurrection building is a group of senior British officials who are social and regularly holding cricket competitions.

While strolling through the plaza, you can stroll through the perfect hedge boundary road and you will find Malaysia's independent memorable 95 meter flagpole.

Please check Kuala Lumpur City Art Gallery for photos and crafts through the history of the city. Please go to the south and visit the National Textile Museum. Here you can find hundreds of items to track the traditions of Malaysia's fabrics and embroidery. Head north and find the St. Mary's Cathedral of the 19th century, the Diocese of Western Malaysia

The Independence Square is located in the center of Kuala Lumpur, opposite the inland of James Mosque and Sungai Gombak River. Public transportation is convenient, and there is a pay parking lot under the flagpole area. The square can be entered free of charge every day, including City Gallery and Textile Museum.

Also known as Independence Square (Malay: Padang Merdeka) or "City Hall" is a place to declare independence between Sabah and Malaysia. This statement was announced by Danford Stevens, Sabah's first prime minister, also known as Malaysia Day on September 16, 1963. Today, the site will host the annual Celebration celebration on February 2nd, and on August 31th we will hold a celebration of Independence Day and other celebrations and events. Atkinson Clock Tower near Bandaran Berjaya was built in 1905 by Mary Edith Atkinson in honor of his son Francis George Atkinson. Previously it was used as a navigation device of a ship. It was one of three pre-World War II buildings that survived the war. The Pettas War Memorial Museum near KKIA reminds people who died for the Japanese army during the Second World War. It was in the place where the Japanese army killed Kinabalu guerrillas in 1944.

The Independence Square is the center of Kuala Lumpur. Since the Malaysian flag flew here for the first time when it came independence from Britain in 1957, it is sometimes called an independent square. The square is a meadow mainly used by the cricketers during colonial times, surrounded by more famous buildings in the city such as the National History Museum and the Royal Selangor Go Club. At public plaza, various public events such as outdoor concerts are held. The square is also the starting point and the end point of the town marathon.

Dataran Merdeka If you only want to visit the hustle and bustle of the city center, head to the center of the Old Town, Merdeka square or Dataran Merdeka. There are colonial-era buildings that are still well preserved in this area, many of which are now 5 star hotels. So, if you want a little extravagance rather than the ambiguity of KLCC, independent plaza is the best choice. Only colonial buildings of Merdeka Square are enough to attract someone to this quaint and charming city. I am looking forward to offer UK colonialism, high quality customer service, and fine meals. Bukit Bintang is probably the busiest region in Kuala Lumpur, and especially if you are an avid shopper, Bukit Bintang is definitely not disappointing. Malls such as Starhill Gallery, Fahrenheit 88 and Lot 10 can be combined with the finest brands of travel stores. Signboards and shopping malls have many industry-oriented hotel chains.
