Due to its strategic business location, Kampong Bharu’s heritage is slowly being eroded with many architectural heritage buildings and structures being lost from existence. This village holds many important histories towards the development of Kuala Lumpur that we have come to know. Yet there is a lack of celebration of the heritage and history of Kampong Bharu. This study reviews the ways digitisation and digitalisation can help benefit the heritage preservation of Kampong Bharu and the challenges it faces.
