Masjid Jamek Mosque lays somewhat hidden under Kuala Lumpur skyscrapers and pressed between the Klang and Gombak river. In fact this should have been the place where the first settlers decided to stay. The central location - both Merdeka Square and Chinatown are nearby - forces you to make a quick stopover.

this area has weekend stalls, large stores,material shops everywhere, restraunts for everyone. shops gold ever way you look. small retail stores with everything. easy to get to. everyone friendly. saturday & sunday is a buss with everything GO & SEE.

If you are a non-muslim you cannot enter the actual praying areas, which makes sense. But its nice to walk around for 15 minutes. Ladies get a robe to wear, so they can visit as well.

A great mosque with great history. I went around the place taking shots perfect for arabic style settings. Do wear something appropriate and ensure your skin is covered for the visit.

My husband and I were excited to visit the oldest mosque in KL... Unfortunately was closed for repairs. We asked around and were told it would be closed for up to 6 months... Be sure to double check if it has opened again if you want to visit :).
