Sultan Abdul Samad Building
The gleaming copper domes and 130-meter clock tower of the
Sultan Abdul Samad Building are by far the most impressive
architectural feature of the Dataran Merdeka. This elaborate
edifice is a fantastic blend of Moghul, Moorish, Arab, and
British neoclassical architecture, a style far more expressive
of the British colonial imagination than of Malay culture.
Designed by architects Norman and Bidwell, the building took
more than two years to build and was completed in 1897. It
served initially as the center of British colonial administration
in Malaysia. Today, it houses the Judicial Department on one
end and Infokraf, a centre for Malaysian handicrafts, on the
other.
