During this time of movement control in Malaysia, just as with many other parts of the world, most of us try not to wander out unnecessarily. Less to catch something undesired. This evening after some work, I was able to spend a bit of time wandering around the Independence Square (https://g.page/dataran-merdeka-kuala-lumpur?share )area of Kuala Lumpur, after some many months. Took some shots along the walk (yes, I was wearing a face mask all the time).
Photo below: A walk along the Dataran Merdeka bridge (https://goo.gl/maps/4vbqB4hd7VfQkDLQ8 ) which connects Masjid Jamek area to Independence Square. A peaceful flowing river, meandering around the old buildings. The old building on the right is the Sultan Abdul Samad Building (https://goo.gl/maps/ZsZd6geX2UmYYeez9 )
Photo below: The iconic and very functional Dataran Merdeka bridge (https://goo.gl/maps/4vbqB4hd7VfQkDLQ8 ) cladded with glass and stainless steel.

Photo below: And then a slow stroll along the Sultan Abdul Samad Building (https://goo.gl/maps/z5eR5NHA5sDx91gF9 ). Enjoying the unique architecture and the strong breeze blowing today. See all the flags flapping strongly.
Photo below: The new meets the old. The Sultan Abdul Samad Building (https://goo.gl/maps/z5eR5NHA5sDx91gF9 ) was the tallest building built when Kuala Lumpur was set up in the late 1800s. And just behind it, the building in construction, the PNB 118 (https://goo.gl/maps/TJkYN5rp16kqcuEQ6 ), which is set to the new tallest building in Kuala Lumpur (and the 2nd tallest in the world) when it completes in 2021, at a height of 644m and 118 stories.

Photo below: My final photo before the night overtakes the evening, back at the same place as the same photo of the back of the Sultan Abdul Samad Building (https://goo.gl/maps/z5eR5NHA5sDx91gF9 ).
Definitely a place to come in the evening for the most beautiful picturesque photo capture place in town.

… was the administrative building of the British government during the British occupation. It used to be the Malaysia Supreme Court, but now it’s not really used. We can only visit the outside at the moment, until they probably refurbish the building for some other historical purpose.
. I liked this post specially the evening NYT photos , they are very beautiful
