Sultan Abdul Samad Building

The Sultan Abdul Samad Building is among Kuala Lumpur’s earliest Moorish-style buildings. It is set to the east of Merdeka Square. It was built in 1897 and was named after the reigning sultan of Selangor at the time. This landmark originally served as the secretariat for the colonial British administration. This historically-significant building used to house the superior courts of Malaysia: the Federal Court of Malaysia, the Court of Appeals and the High Court of Malaya, before they moved to Putrajaya. #malaysia #malaysiatravel #awesomepic
