This picture shows the situation at the masjid Jamek. Masjid Jamek is one of the oldest mosque in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. Is located at the confluence of the Klang and Gombak River and was designed by Autrhur Benison Hubback.
The Sultan of Selangor officially opened the mosque in 1909, two years after construction was completed. The mosque was built on the first Malay burial ground in the city. Before the national mosque, Masjid Negara, was opened in 1965, Masjid Jamek served as Kuala Lumpur's main mosque.
