The National Mosque was built in 1974 with a modern and stylish architectural style. The minaret, which is used to recite the Quran, stands at 73 meters high. The blue star-shaped roof is different from the traditional onion dome design of mosques, symbolizing the aspirations of an independent nation and is very eye-catching. It has a total of 18 spires, representing the 13 states of Malaysia and the 5 tenets of Islam. The overall design of the mosque is inspired by the Grand Mosque in Mecca, especially the interior decoration, which is similar to Mecca. The main hall can accommodate up to 15,000 worshippers at the same time, making it the largest mosque in Southeast Asia.

Petaling Street, also known as Chinatown or Chinese Town, is a popular tourist spot in Kuala Lumpur. Nowadays, most of the vendors are foreign workers selling various counterfeit products. Here, you can taste authentic local snacks and bargain for souvenirs. Famous night stalls are concentrated on Jalan Hang Lekir and Jalan Sultan, getting livelier as the night goes on. The emergence of cultural streets in the Petaling Street area has brought more artistic vibes, with old pre-war shophouses renovated into cafes, bars, themed restaurants, folk song restaurants, bookstores, tea houses, and more. The unique graffiti on the walls also serves as a backdrop for wedding photos, adding a special touch to the area.
