Mosque well preserved at 105 years old

The recently unearthed steps adjoining Masjid Jamek leads to the discovery of lost history.

MOST if not all of the original architecture and finishings in Masjid Jamek, a mosque built at the confluence of Sungai Klang and Sungai Gombak, have survived for 105 years.

Research by the Malaysian Institute of Architects (PAM) heritage conservation committee unveiled a lot of interesting information about the mosque that has also evolved into a tourist attraction.
