The map
Kuala Lumpur takes its name, roughly meaning muddy confluence, from the meeting of the Klang and Gombak rivers. Masjid Jamek stands on the spit of land where they join. From that point the city spread along the river valleys and across the surrounding hills. Its road network curves and loops to follow the terrain rather than any grid.
Near the confluence is Merdeka Square, where Malaysian independence was declared in 1957. To the northeast rise the Petronas Twin Towers, with KLCC Park at their foot. West of the old centre, the Perdana Botanical Gardens, long known as the Lake Gardens, form a large green area. Elevated highways and rail lines cross the city on long curving paths.
A Kuala Lumpur map poster shows a very different kind of capital: dense, layered and shaped by its rivers and ridges. The old core at the confluence stays visible within the web of roads. The parks and green slopes open up breathing space between districts, so the map is intricate without being crowded.

The Perdana Botanical Gardens cover a broad area west of the centre. On the poster they read as calm open ground beside dense streets.
Elevated expressways and ring roads sweep through the city in long arcs. They give the map a sense of speed and a layered quality.

Why Kuala Lumpur
