Victoria Institution - Prestigious & Timeless

We start our monthly episode on iconic landmarks and monuments in the Klang Valley in 2025 by visiting the oldest secondary school in Kuala Lumpur, Victoria Institution. VI, as it’s more affectionately known by the public, is one of the more elite and prestigious schools in the city and has produced a long list of luminaries in various industries and fields. In this episode, heritage conservation expert Elizabeth Cardosa charts the journey of the school from its old location to its current one, the architectural style of the school and one interesting story about the school that’s not as well-known, but is now embraced by its alumni.
