Tourists can easily see the buildings from various places in Kuala Lumpur.
Then, head to Independence Square. The square began construction in 1961 and was completed in 1976, making it one of the largest squares in the world. There are buildings such as the National Monument of Malaysia built on the square. At the southern end of the square stands a 100 foot high flagpole, commemorating Malaysia’s independence from British rule on August 31, 1957.
