維多利亞學院
在那裡
Though not exactly a tourist spot, this school, easily recognisable by its clock tower on its main block, is the oldest existing operational public school in Kuala Lumpur, having been founded in 1893 and relocated to its present site in 1929. Named after the reigning British queen during its founding, the all-boys school had produced its share of celebrities that had contributed to the country in various fields.
它的故事
吉隆坡維多利亞書院是馬來西亞的一所男子中學(中六學級開放給女性入學),也是吉隆坡最悠久的英文學校之一。該校也是一所紀念學校之所以這樣稱呼因為它的部分資金來自大眾的募款,旨在豎立一座永久紀念碑來紀念維多利亞女王登基50年的金禧慶典。雪蘭莪蘇丹與雪州政府、吉隆坡顯赫人士和大眾給予財政援助進一步支持學校的建立。 2009年2月,由時任國民團結、文化、藝術與遺產部長沙菲益阿達宣布從吉隆坡維多利亞國中恢復為吉隆坡維多利亞書院,也獲評為國家文物遺產。
