Medan Tuanku Monorail Station
About the Station
Medan Tuanku Monorail Station is an elevated monorail train station that
forms a part of the Kuala Lumpur Monorail (KL Monorail) line located in
Kuala Lumpur and opened alongside the rest of the train service on August
31, 2003.
The Station is situated in and named after Medan Tuanku, a small commercial
district in Kuala Lumpur. The name of "Medan" was derived from Indian Hindi
language word "Maidan" meaning "ground" or "land", whereas the name "Tuanku"
derived from a direct English translation of "King". Thus the name Medan
Tuanku means "King's Ground".
The Station is situated above Jalan Sultan Ismail, just south of Chow Kit
and located east from an intersection with Jalan Tuanku Abdul Rahman; it
marks the start and end of the Monorail Line that runs parallel along Jalan
Sultan Ismail Road, up until the Bukit Bintang
Station, after which the line turns west to Jalan Imbi at the both road
intersection.
This area are connected to Jalan Tuanku Abdul Rahman, Jalan Sultan Ismail
and Jalan Dang Wangi via "backroads". Quill City Mall is linked to Medan
Tuanku Monorail Station by a bridge on the second floor.
