This research suggests a concept of virtual heritage experience within the field of architecture in a collaborative virtual environment. A real-time virtual reality application is adopted based on the fundamentals of virtual heritage metadata structure suggested by the UNESCO guidelines that encompassed both cultural and natural heritage of a digital dataset and are thus useful as a starting point for most virtual heritage application. This paper focuses on the technical challenges and requirement particularly on the optimization of modeling for real-time visualization to represent heritage buildings of the pre-independence period in architecture built within the period of 80 to 200 years. This e-Content Fund research awarded by the Ministry of Science, Technology and Innovation (MOSTI) Malaysian named e-Warisan SENIBINA will demonstrate the early finding results of two shortlisted buildings that influenced the direction of traditional Malay Muslim architecture in Peninsular Malaysia.
