Kuala Lumpur City Gallery

Unclaimed

The gallery is a very nice place. It's not very big but is very interesting and describes in a concise way the history of Malaysia as well as the history behind each attraction building. In one big hall it contains a huge scale model of the entire city. Also inside the gallery there is a shop selling food and souvenirs. by the way, the entrance is free. Is a place that you must see.

As soon as you walk in you smell the scent of fresh pastries wafting in the air. There is a cozy cafe on the main floor where you can see the staff busy at work making all kinds of pastries. Lots of places to sit and a small gift shop. This free place gives a good overview of KL. They have this amazing mini version of the city and also a lineup of the main buildings in a separate room.

Went here during the school holidays, was not that packed. Tourist attraction place for sure. The kids enjoyed taking pictures with their iconic props and statues. Do drop by the pastry cafe there, serve awesome delightful pastries.

I often come here because KL Library is just next door. I go library on weekly basis. So KL City Gallery is a unique place to explore. The cafe serve good food, but during peak hour and public holidays, the waiting hour just to enter the cafe can be long. Food can be pricey. If you don't plan to eat here, you still can just go to view the gallery. A lot interesting stuffs here. More like art gallery plus museum. Free entry. Overall, a pleasant visit.

A good place with a blend of old charm of KL (the small but awesome gallery) and good selection of patisserie and beverages. The best way to get a seat is to reserve ahead or to reserve by walk in. I like the ambiance in the cafe, where there are handicrafts on sale and tour. A good place to have light F&B while sightseeing at Dataran Merdeka. For parking, there’s ample parking lots under the Dataran Merdeka.
