Old KL Train Station

The Kuala Lumpur railway station, on Jalan Sultan Hishamuddin, is the city's historic station designed by British architect Arthur Benison Hubback; building began in 1910 and it was fully completed in 1917, replacing an older station on the same site. Its Indo-Saracenic design mixes Eastern and Western elements, with Moorish/Mughal ('Raj') features such as horseshoe and ogee arches and chhatris. Once Kuala Lumpur's main railway hub for the Federated Malay States Railways and later KTM, it lost intercity traffic to KL Sentral in 2001 and now serves KTM Komuter and ETS trains while housing a railway museum.
