Masjid Jamek Lookout Point @ River of Life

Riverside lookout at the confluence of two rivers, beside a century-old Indo-Saracenic mosque.
This guide to the Masjid Jamek Lookout Point in Kuala Lumpur starts with an 1857 party of Chinese miners passing through the confluence of the Klang and Gombak rivers, and the traders who set up supply shops there instead. It follows how that trading post grew into a capital city, and the pink-and-white mosque that rose on the riverbank in 1909. The guide also covers the rivers' decades of pollution and a costly restoration project launched in 2011.
