★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Loke Chow Kit, a very prominent chinese businessman built this mansion in Jalan Tangsi in 1907. At that time, he already had his main home in Ampang. In 1909, the house was sold to private investors and became the Empire Hotel. In 1919, after Loke Chow Kit's death, his son bought it back but it was again sold and became the Peninsula Hotel. It closed in 1973 as by then other hotels were appearing.
The building currently houses a Tourist Information Centre and still under refurbishing by KL City Hall. I look forward to its completion and eventual opening to the general public.
There are many accomplishments of Mr. Loke Chow Kit and he was also the owner of the first shopping mall in Kuala Lumpur!
