RIVER OF LIFE @KUALA LUMPUR#klinsider A walk around the river bank near jamek mosque will bring you towards the river of life walking route. It is accessable easily by LRT masjid jamek station. The river of life project is one of the initiatives of malaysia government to beautified the klang and gombak river section inside the city centre. With the completion of this project, it is no doubt that the landscape of central Kuala Lumpur has changed positively. It is advisable to visit this route in the late afternoon or at night, as the view of the city is amazing with lots of lighting lights up the walking route as the river. One of the highlights to be included in the list if you are visiting KL soon. Cheersdnex8615

The river of life , Kuala Lumpur#klinsider This is very famous spot and located in the center of Kuala Lumpur. Also it’s close to most tourist destinations. This place is a 5-minute walk from Merdeka Square, Sultan Abdul Samad, Masjid Jamek Sultan Abdul Samad, and Chinatown. Here you can walk near the river, visit the most important tourist areas or make shopping. There are also places where you can try many Malaysian local dishes. I especially recommend you to go to the old market square clock tower and try these delicious dishes. #travelinspiration #kualalumpur #asiantraveller #asianfood #malaysiafood #riverwalk #malaysiaColuber8

The River of Life in KLThe River of Life in KL doesn’t just connect some of the best attractions in Malaysia’s capital, it’s an attraction in itself The Klang River and the Gombak River meet directly at the Jamek Sultan Abdul Samad Mosque and that’s where the urban river restoration project, River of Life, takes place. Walking next to the riverfront and admiring the beautiful surroundings is definitely worth it. You get the best view of the old mosque from the River of Life. #kualalumpurtripshe travels

Come Enjoy The River of Life KL#hiddengems The River of Life KL is an attraction in Kuala Lumpur that you should not miss out on! The River of Life Project in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, was an ambitious restoration and beautification initiative aimed at transforming the Klang River and its surrounding areas and now, we have a fairly beautiful waterfront that has scenic bicycle or walking trails, cafés, and some murals on certain buildings along the way making it an ideal location to enjoy the outdoors and the charms of Kuala Lumpur city centre. The Klang River and the Gombak River meet directly at the Jamek Sultan Abdul Samad Mosque and that’s where the River of Life is…. I have walked alone the riverfront many times and I still do it and enjoy bringing tourist friends here to admire the beautiful surroundings One of the highlights of the River of Life is that it showcases the city’s oldest mosque, Masjid Jamek as well as the Sultan Abdul Samad building!!! #riverfront #waterfront #riveroflife #livelifelah #kualalumpurLivelifelah4

River of LifeGreat place for a stroll especially at night when they turn on the mists, the ambience is really out of this world. The recreational walk help to convert an otherwise dead space into a visitor attraction, which enlivens the waterfront. Something different to experience. The tiny musical fountain was meh though. It’s quite on the weekdays too. Very near from Masjid Jamek Station. #wecreateDicky Pranata27

The river of life is a seven year project headed by government of Malaysia to transform the klang river into vibrant and liveable waterfont values with high economic value.
night is a good city walk over here and got water show performance on time to time, can chill walk around
The big building by the River of Life now has a beautiful mural if you want to take a picture. Also enjoy this giant size painting. Many messages can be found here.
The project to restore the Gombak and Klang Rivers into the world's leading riverfront areas has actually gained the world's attention.
If you sleep at a hotel around Jamek Mosque, you can walk here in the morning or at night. You can see for yourself the difference made in the river area here.
The landscape of this area is now cheerful and walk from the Masjid Jamek LRT station along the river, then up to the first bridge in KL.
