Nice Bus Terminal OLD KTM station Kuala Lumpur

Kuala Lumpur KTM Station formerly served as the main railway hub of Kuala Lumpur before Kuala Lumpur Sentral (KL Sentral) replaced and now became the main railway station. This old railway station is a good spot to get to nearby attractions such as the National Mosque of Malaysia (Masjid Negara), Islamic Arts Museum Malaysia and National Planetarium. The Old KL Railway Station is one of Kuala Lumpur’s most famous landmarks. Until the Petronas Twin Towers was built, the railway station, together with the Sultan Abdul Samad building, was among the most photographed symbols of the city. The station was completed in 1910 and designed by that most prolific and talented of British colonial architects, Arthur Benison Hubback. Working at the Public Works Department, he was responsible for many other iconic buildings in Malaysia such as the stately Ipoh Railway Station and the Royal Gallery in Klang. The KL Railway Station was built with Mughal features such as the elegant chhatris (dome-capped pavilions of Indian origin) along its roof line. The station served as the city’s main rail hub until the modern KL Sentral station took over in 2001 The old station is still used for KTM Komuter services. Some of its platforms were too low for KTM Komuter trains and a more modern extension with a separate entrance was built in the 1980s.
