Every year, Malaysia's independence is celebrated at the Merdeka Square in Kuala Lumpur. Explore the majestic Merdeka Square in Kuala Lumpur, where the Malaysian flag was raised for the first time in 1957, signalling the dawn of a new era. The stunning Sultan Abdul Samad Building, with its striking clock tower and Moorish-style arches, is an iconic backdrop to the square's celebrations and events. This historic building was designed by British architect A.C. Norman and continues to stand as a symbol of Malaysia's architectural and cultural heritage.
