Walk in Kuala Lumpur/Botanical Garden

From Brickfields

Starting from the Monorailway station in Brickfields, first cross Jalan Tun Sambanthan via the footbridge into NU Sentral shopping mall. Once in the mall, follow the signs leading upstairs then round to the left and down again into the main station concourse. Go straight through the station, following signs for Le Meridien and Hilton hotels, to emerge on the Northwest side at the taxi rank and drop-off area. Turn right and walk to the top of this area, to find an entrance ramp curving in from the left. Walk down this, crossing another service lane. You’ll see a ramp curving in from Jalan Travers, and a highway bridge across it. Take the bridge sidewalk, and on the other side descend the stairs onto Jalan Travers. Turn left and immediately left again, you should see the National Museum just ahead. That’s the hard part done - from here on it's literally a stroll in the park. This whole area is blighted by construction of a new metro station, which may disrupt the route short-term, but should eventually improve pedestrian access. The footpath ahead leads to a ramp into the museum. Staying on the footpath takes you through a subway (which may flood in wet weather) into the Lake Gardens. This route is locked when the gardens close, around 8 pm, and on no account should you attempt to walk across the expressway Jalan Damansara thundering above you.

Now you are in the Perdana Botanical Garden neighborhood right north of the National Mosque.

The Perdana Botanical Gardens were designed by the British Finance minister in Malaysia in the late 19th century. In the middle of the park is an artificial lake surrounded by greeneries and hills. This park is popular among local residents and tourist alike as a location to relax and take in the sunshine and beauty. The park itself has some sights:

  • Hibiscus Garden - Taman Bunga Raya | Garden dedicated to the national plant of Malaysia.
  • Deer & Mousdeer Park - Little zoo with plenty of reindeer.

Mosques and buildings

  • National Mosque - Masjid Negara | Masjid Negara is unique in that it incorporates Malay-Islamic rather than the usual Arabic-Islamic architecture. It is known for its conspicuous turquoise umbrella-like roof. A yellow umbrella is usually part of the royal regalia of the sultans of (Malay) kingdoms.
  • Heroes' Mausoleum - Makam Pahlawan | The burial ground of several Malaysian leaders and politicians. Construction of the mausoleum began in 1963 under its project of the construction of Masjid Negara and was completed in 1965. The cemetery has an interior and an exterior. Part is covered with a concrete dome in the form of a starburst, each side of which almost touches the ground, and separated by a pond from the outside.
  • National Monument - Tugu Negara | This immense bronze structure was built as a memorial to the soldiers who gave up their lives for their country. This sculpture depicts seven soldiers holding the Malaysian flag, each symbolising one of seven qualities; unity, strength, leadership, sacrifice, courage, suffering and vigilance. It was sculpted by Felix de Weldon, who sculpted the famed Iwo Jima Memorial statue in Virginia, United States.
  • Tun Abdul Razak Memorial - Malaysia. He ruled from 1970 to 1976. He is entombed in Makam Pahlawan. Razak lived on the site of the memorial from 1962 until his dead. The site consists of 2 sections: The first shows exhibitions of his life and the second is focused on his time as a politician.

Museums

  • National Museum - Muzium Negara - Contains exhibits on traditional life among the various ethnic communities of Malaysia, numerous well-explained artifacts including fine clothing and shadow puppets and Orang Asli woodcarving pieces. The history section is divided into four galleries - Gallery A (prehistoric), Gallery B( (Malay) kingdoms), Gallery C (colonial era) and Gallery D (modern Malaysia). A visit to this museum can help you to understand more about Malaysian history and culture.

Muzium Kesenian Islam Malaysia 7 - Islamic Arts Museum

  • Islamic Arts Museum - Muzium Kesenian Islam Malaysia - One of the most interesting museums in KL and the Islamic Arts Museum houses both modern and traditional Malaysia as part of the larger Islamic world and, through exhibitions of objects of religious and aesthetic significance, shows both the connection of Malaysian Islamic culture to the Muslim lands to its west and its uniqueness. The museum is the largest museum of Islamic arts in South East Asia with more than seven thousands artifacts from the Islamic world. It also features a large and high quality shop.
  • National Planetarium - Planetarium Negara - The attractions here include space science and astronomy exhibits, a theatre screening 3-Dimensional movies, a viewing gallery and an observatory.
  • Royal Malaysian Police Museum - Muzium Polis Diraja Malaysia | The police museum shows the history of the Malaysian police with pictures, weapons and vehicles.
  • (Malay) World Ethnology Museum - Muzium Etnologi Dunia Melayu - This museum displays brass utensils, weapons, pottery, textiles and musical instruments from countries within the (Malay) World like Indonesia, Philippines, Thailand, Cambodia and many others.

Zoological gardens

  • Bird Park - Taman Burung - From beautiful peacocks to the alien looking birds from all over the world, this 60-hectare bird park is home to 200 species. Highlights of the park include the free-roaming birds (which seem to cope rather well with the enthusiastic children and photographers) and the artificial but well-made waterfall, and the large flamingo pond. You can actually experience part of the bird park without paying to go in by eating at the Hornbill Restaurant and Cafe, which is actually built within the bird park where you can get up close with some of the birds that wish to share your lunch including the large and entertaining hornbills. The restaurant is also not affordable - the set meals are about the same price as the park's tickets, although Malaysians enjoy a measly discount. The park is also a destination of sightseeing buses. Recently people complain about the declining number of species in the park.
  • Butterfly Park - Taman Rama Rama - walk-through tropical butterfly enclosure. Apparently the largest butterfly garden in the world spanning over 80,000 sq ft of landscaped garden with over 5,000 live butterflies, exotic plants, butterfly-host plants and ferns.
