Kuala Lumpur Tourism Bureau (8 July, 2016)
Kuala Lumpur Tourism Bureau (GPS: 3.15005, 101.69185), also called 11 Tangsi, is the tourist office for Kuala Lumpur. The office assists in the development of tourism products and infrastructure for the city. It is housed in a historic building at Lot 11, Jalan Tangsi (hence the name 11 Tangsi). The opening of the office was officiated by the Kuala Lumpur mayor, Datuk Mohd Amin Nordin Abd Aziz, in the presence of the Deputy Minister for Tourism and Culture, Datuk Mas Ermieyati Samsudi, and Secretary General in the Tourism and Culture Ministry, Tan Sri Ong Hong Pang, in November, 2015.
Lot 11, Jalan Tangsi was built in 1903, and served as an annex to Loke Hall, which was at 10, Barrack Road. Lot 11 used to housed the Empire Hotel from 1908 until the aftermath of the Second World War, when it was renamed the Peninsular Hotel. The Tourism and Culture ministry spent about RM7 million to refurbish the building.
Those involved in the restoration and conservation found that much of the interior of the building had been damaged by fire. Nevertheless, they were able to preserve the exterior façade of the building.
