Sultan Abdul Samad building is one of the oldest buildings in Kuala Lumpur. The architecture of this building is so amazing and based on the Moorish architecture. The building is now more than 100 years old.
The buiding was built in the year around 1894 till 1897 and located near the confluence of Klang and Gombak Rivers which is located at the back of this building. In the previous post, I wrote that this confluence is the place where Kuala Lumpur got its name now.

You can also easily find the cheap garment sellers at the roadside of Jalan Tuanku Abdul Rahman. Many supermarkets cannot stay long in business here due to the fierce price competition with the small shops around here. So that’s why you can see Mydin Store is still there because they apply the wholesale price of their products.
