Old KL Train Station

One of the more iconic buildings in Kuala Lumpur is the old train and railway station. This colonial building with it’s large chhatris (elevated domes) and distinct arches in a moorish architecture shows the grandeur of the Malaysian and British empire. It’s no surprise it’s often considered one of the best looking train stations in the world. The clean white architecture of this classic monument forms a great contrast to the modern Kuala Lumpur buildings. The train station is still used to connect the different districts of the city using an above-ground metro.

In front of the Old Railway Station you can find another notable monument, the KTM Headquarters. So if you step outside the railway station you can take dazzling pictures of both landmarks at the same time.
