Arulmigu Sri Ramalinga Eeswarar Alayam, a brick and stone temple, was built in 1903 by the Malayan Railway employees who needed a temple in the area. Devotees flocked to this place of worship during the many Hindu festivals. In 1980 the temple was marked for demolition to make way for developments in the area. Perseverance from the numerous devotees and the then-minister, Tan Sri Manickavasagam, led to the granting of land at Lot 61 Jalan Maarof where the new Arulmigu Sri Ramalinga Eeswarar Temple now stands.

Petronas Towers is a set of identical postmodern buildings in the heart of Kuala Lumpur. Apart from ruling the skyline of this thriving city, it is a symbol of the city's economic progress and unbeatable ambition. Connected by a Skybridge that is deemed to be the world's highest, the vertiginous stretch of the building continues uninterrupted and comes to a stop at the 88th story, where it soars above the city at a height of 451.9 meters (1,483 feet). With an Islam-inspired design, the Petronas Towers dominate the city center and form one of the main commercial hubs in the city, housing top corporate head offices of several companies, including the Petronas Company, and the Suria KLCC retail center. The elevators in the building reflect marvelous engineering as well, with distinct lower-deck and upper-deck sections that take passengers to even-numbered and odd-numbered floors respectively. The Petronas Twin Towers enjoyed the title of the world's tallest building up until 2004 when it was rivaled by the Taipei 101 tower and later the Burj Khalifa in 2010.
