Confluence of Klang & Gombak River



This is the confluence point of 2 muddy river, i.e. Klang River on the right and Gombak River on the left. The dome belongs to Masjid Jamek. I was standing at the Lebuh Pasar bridge as I took this shot.

It is at this spot that Kuala Lumpur, the city of Malaysia, got its name in 1860s, where a band of prospectors in search of tin landed here, and named it Kuala Lumpur, or Muddy Estuary.
