Sungai Buloh
Built around plantation land and a railway station, Sungai Buloh grew into a northern Selangor town within the wider Klang Valley. Its name refers to the Sungai Buloh, a local river, while the area has developed from agricultural estates toward housing, commerce and transport links with Kuala Lumpur. The town is closely associated with the Sungai Buloh Leprosy Settlement, established in 1930 as one of the largest such settlements in the British Empire. Parts of its historic landscape remain an important reminder of Malaysia’s public-health history. KTM Komuter and MRT services support Sungai Buloh’s role as a transport hub on the north-western side of metropolitan Kuala Lumpur, where established neighbourhoods sit beside traces of the estate era.

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.

The South China Sea defines much of Malaysia — it separates Peninsular Malaysia from the states of Sabah and Sarawak on Borneo, while sustaining ports, fisheries and island connections. Malay, Chinese, Indian and Indigenous traditions shape the country’s languages, food and religious life. Kuala Lumpur’s Petronas Twin Towers are a national landmark, while Melaka recalls centuries of trade across the Strait of Malacca. Rainforest reserves and Mount Kinabalu in Sabah contrast with the dense urban energy of the west coast, and Penang is widely known for its street-food culture.
