Malaysia Tourism Centre, Tourist information complex in Ampang district, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.
Malaysia Tourism Centre is a tourism information complex located in Kuala Lumpur housed in a colonial-style building with white walls and large windows. The facility provides tourist information services, currency exchange, police assistance, internet access, and travel reservation options for visitors.
The building was constructed in 1935 as a residence for mining magnate Eu Tong Seng and later served as headquarters for British and Japanese forces during World War II. After Malaysia gained independence, it was transformed into a tourism center and became an important information point for visitors.
The center displays exhibition rooms with Malaysian artworks and handicrafts that reflect the country's rich heritage. Visitors can experience traditional music and dance performances that showcase the living cultural life of Malaysia.
The center operates daily from 8 AM to 10 PM and provides all necessary services for travelers in one convenient location. It is advisable to visit early in the day when visitor numbers are lower and staff can spend more time assisting you.
Within the building stands the Tunku Abdul Rahman Hall, which has been used for important parliamentary sessions and royal ceremonies since Malaysia gained independence. This hall connects the place directly to the most significant moments of the country's modern history.
