Things to do in Kuala Lumpur, Wilayah Persekutuan: The Best Sacred & Religious Sites

September 27, 2021 Janette Largent

The cultural hub of Malaysia, Kuala Lumpur is visually defined by the iconic Petronas Twin Towers, which, at 88 stories high, are the tallest twin buildings in the world and a vision of modern architecture. On the flip side, the Sri Mahamariamman is the oldest Hindu temple in Malaysia, its façade a colorful totem pole of iconography. Shopping at the Central Market is a joyful experience that involves haggling, handicrafts, and happiness.

Thean Hou Temple

This ornate Chinese temple dedicated to the Queen of Heaven, Thean Hou, protectorate of people who make their living from the sea. The temple borrows from Buddhist, Taoist and Confucian traditions. Some visitors believe the panoramic views of KL alone make the trip up the hill worthwhile.

What a total opposite to the disgraceful dump that is the Hindu Batu Caves that we visited earlier in the day . It is amazing how different religions and attitudes can be so different This beautiful temple is immaculately maintained and has a peaceful ambiance . Set on a hill top it has stunning views across the city . Grab a Grab and make this one of your must sees whilst in KL.

It is a place that my family never fail to go during Chinese New Year. It is nice and comfort place for me. There will be prayer on the eve of the Chinese New Year until the 1st day of Chinese New Year. Everyone should visit this place.

Masjid Wilayah Persekutuan

Reviewed By oliviad542

This was my first time going inside a mosque and it was great, we felt very welcomed. They provide robes to cover up so you don’t need to wear anything in particular to visit. We had a free tour (go to gate B) which was very informative about the history of Islam, its teachings and the mosque itself. Our guide Ahmed was very friendly and knowledgeable, answering all of our questions. We got a free bottle of water at the end. This visit has been a highlight! An easy grab ride from the centre. Highly recommend.
