苏丹阿都沙末嘉美清真寺

嘉美清真寺

嘉美清真寺， 全名为苏丹阿都沙末嘉美清真寺，是吉隆坡最古老的清真寺之一。它位于巴生河和鹅唛河的交汇处，可通过敦霹雳路到达。

这座清真寺的前身是个马来友族的墓地。在嘉美清真寺还未建成前，在附近的爪哇街和马来街地区也有一些清真寺，但嘉美清真寺是当时吉隆坡第一座大型清真寺。清真寺在1908年3月23日建造，由苏丹阿拉乌丁苏莱曼沙举行动土礼的，苏丹也于1909年12月23日正式为清真寺举办开幕典礼。

建筑师是Arthur Benison Hubback，他以印度穆斯林莫卧儿建筑风格设计了这座清真寺。 嘉美清真寺是吉隆坡的主要清真寺，直到国家清真寺于1965年建成。

清真寺有2座主要的宣礼塔和3座圆拱顶，其中最大的圆拱顶高达21.3米（70英尺）。祈祷大厅就位于三个圆拱顶下方。

这是“大吉隆坡/巴生谷”计划下的生命之河的所在地。

Masjid Jamek Sultan Abdul Samad

Masjid Jamek, officially Masjid Jamek Sultan Abdul Samad, is one of the oldest mosques in Kuala Lumpur. It is located at the confluence of the Klang and Gombak Rivers and can be accessed via Jalan Tun Perak.

The mosque was built on the location of an old Malay burial place. A couple of mosques previously existed in the  Java Street and Malay Street area serving the Malay communities, but Masjid Jamek would be the first large mosque to be built in Kuala Lumpur. The foundation stone of the mosque was laid by the Sultan of Selangor, Sultan Alaeddin Sulaiman Shah on 23 March 1908, and the Sultan officially opened the mosque on 23 December 1909.

The architect was Arthur Benison Hubback who designed the mosque in the Indian Muslim Mughal architectural style. Masjid Jamek served as Kuala Lumpur's main mosque until the national mosque, Masjid Negara, was built in 1965.

The mosque has 2 main minarets and 3 domes, the largest of which reached 21.3 metres (70 ft) in height. The prayer hall is located beneath the domes.

This is the location named as The River of Life under the Greater Kuala Lumpur/Klang Valley program.
