Constructed during the British colonial period, the building showcases a blend of Moorish, Victorian, and Mughal architectural styles, creating a unique and grand appearance. Visitors often appreciate the intricate details of the building's facade, including its arched windows, decorative elements, and the prominent clock tower at the center.

This is the Sultan Abdul Samad Building, located in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. The building was constructed in 1897 and named after Sultan Abdul Samad, who ruled Selangor from 1857 to 1898.
