Tucked along the Sungai Buloh River on the northwestern edge of Greater Kuala Lumpur, Sungai Buloh is a town whose character is shaped by lowland waterways and rapid metropolitan growth. Once associated with plantations and rural settlement, it is now linked to the capital by KTM Komuter and MRT rail services, while Selangor’s urban north continues to develop around it. Its most significant historic site is the former Sungai Buloh Leprosy Settlement, established in 1930; now known as the Valley of Hope, it records the lives and medical care of people once isolated there. The town illustrates the shift between Kuala Lumpur’s built-up fringe and Selangor’s broader lowlands. Discover other points of interest through webcams located across Selangor.
