The Catholic Church of Holy Rosary along Jalan Tun Sambathan in Kuala Lumpur began construction in 1903 and 18 months later in 1904 marks the then completed structure as the building now stands in what was a serene sanctuary in the heart of the bustling city.
Its striking architecture was designed by another Catholic Father, its unique and tranquil structure is now a haven for worshipers and visitors alike.
During my visit, the church was closed, and I only managed to take a glimpsed from outside, I have no idea how the interior's decoration looks like but was told the beautifully stained-glass windows and ornate decorate the interior. I would try to get another look inside the next time around. The church is said to offer regular Mass services, fostering a sense of community and spiritual fulfillment for its congregation.
I can say that visiting this piece of landmark whether in solace or prayers or simply admiring its architectural splendor will definitely bring a rewarding experience since this place is heritage in nature, and secondly, it's a House of God. If you're game for another experience, then don't mind spending time here.

I have to drive all the way there to give them the money.
I drove all the way there just to be told that although I am Catholic, my 2 children are Christian, I am not allow to offer mass in their name because they are not Catholic and this comes strictly from "Father of the Church"
I was very shocked. This is totally against the teachings of the bible. The Pope Francis himself washed the feet of the Muslim refugees and here is the father who would not even love non Catholic
I also attended mass once and never going back again because the Father was reading from his notes in the most monotonous voice and I could see people falling asleep. So boring....... I hope the higher authorities will look into the person guilty of doing things that turns people...

The stained glass styled paintings at the sides with the Mysteries of the Rosary could have been done better. LCD screens in front block the stained glass. Ample parking inside and the parishioners are very courteous when entering and leaving the car-park. Weekend masses are at 5pm (Sat). 8.30am (English) and 10.30am on Sundays.
