The memorial was designed by Felix D Warden, who also designed the Iwo Jima Memorial at Arlington, Washington DC. Then pause to take photos at the Tudor-style Cricket Club and the old Railway station, which is a striking piece of Mohammedan architecture. The tour concludes with a visit to the six-tiered Thean Hou Temple situated in Robson Heights. Dedicated to Thean Hou, the Chinese sea Goddess, it is one of the largest temples in South East Asia. The panoramic views of Kuala Lumpur from the top of the hill are a bonus. (Duration: Half Day; Private Activity; Fitness Level: Easy; National Mosque is closed on Fridays)
