Postcrossing MY-55038 To U.S.A.


Postcard Delight presents this postcard of Kuala Lumpur Railway Station (Malaysian: Stesen Keretapi Kuala Lumpur). It was built in 1910 with Moorish-style and busy until 2001 when its role had taken by Kuala Lumpur Sentral, which is located just 1km away. Now, it is quite quiet as only the commuter train stops here.

Some useful information:

Address - Jalan Sultan Hishamuddin, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia

Coordinates - 3°8′22″N 101°41′36″E


Quote at the back of this postcard

This postcard was one of my second batch of postcards sent to addresses provided by Postcrossing, a postcard exchange project.

Postcard Delight presents this postcard of Petronas Twin Towers in daylight. As quoted at the back of this postcard, it was designed by Cesar Pelli, a famous Argentine architect, together with Djay Cerico. Petronas Twin Towers were constructed from 1992 to 1998 for a total of 88 floors, and became the tallest buildings in the world for six years until Taipei 101 completed in 2004.

"Designed by Cesar Pelli, PETRONAS Twin Towers looms 452 metres above street level, and is connected by a skybridge at the 41st floors."
