Istana Budaya Kuala Lumpur, Kuala Lumpur

Istana Budaya, Kuala Lumpur (8 February, 2006)


The Istana Budaya (GPS: 3.17441, 101.70371), or Palace of Culture, is the national theatre of Malaysia. Located off Jalan Tun Razak, it was built at a cost of RM210 million in 1999. The Istana Budaya is located near Tasik Titiwangsa. The structure, which was designed by Malaysian architect Muhammad Kamar Ya'akub, is supposed to resemble the wau, the Malay traditional kite, in flight. It also incorporates the design of a traditional Malay house in its layout, with a verandah or serambi for the lobby, the living room for the auditorium, and the kitchen for the stage and rehearsal area.

Istana Budaya uses Langkawi marble for its interior and tropical wood for its doors, which are carved with floral and leaf motifs. Continuing on the local design, the carpet spots a motif of bunga cempaka (frangipanni) and the beringin tree.

About this website

Hello and thanks for reading this page. My name is Timothy and my hobby is in describing places so that I can share the information with the general public. My website has become the go to site for a lot of people including students, teachers, journalists, etc. whenever they seek information on places, particularly those in Malaysia and Singapore. I have been doing this since 5 January 2003, for over twenty years already. You can read about me at Discover Timothy. By now I have compiled information on thousands of places, mostly in Peninsular Malaysia and Singapore, and I continue to add more almost every day. My goal is to describe every street in every town in Malaysia and Singapore.
