Kuala Lumpur City Gallery
Once again I am sat at OldTown white coffee after visiting the Kuala Lumpur City Gallery. Along the road I have seen the stunning piece of architecture that is the Masjid Jamek mosque as well as the Sultan Abdul Samad building which is perhaps the first example of Moghul architecture in Malaysia.
The gallery itself serves as a small museum of sorts serving to enrich the visitor with a brief history of Kuala Lumpur. It was interesting to learn that that the city was originally a tin mining settlement and that Kuala Lumpur itself means 'Muddy Estuary'. Aside from the small historic gallery there is also a gallery on the second floor that showcases the entire city as a miniature sculpture, complete with roads, trees etc.
For a free gallery it has served it's purpose, no more no less.
Now I am off to take the LTR for a random tour of the city before the final stop at KLCC. If timed correctly I should arrive there to see the city in all it's vibrant glory at night.
