Sydney Lake: The historical park of KL
In 1888, a first recreational area was created in Kuala Lumpur as a place for the British residents. Now, after more than 120 years this lake area still exists. Reintroducing the Sydney Lake Garden as the historical park is not about enhancing the colonial heritage but more on the history that this area once had. With the used of Greater Kuala Lumpur/Klang Valley (GKL/KV) as one of the main references, this paper will try to relate it on reviving this recreational area as one of new tourist attraction of Kuala Lumpur, the Sydney Lake Historical Park.Keywords: Heritage Conservation; Historic Park; Heritage Place; Greater Kuala Lumpur/Klang Valley (GKL/KV)eISSN 2398-4279 © 2018.
