"Selangor - What to Expect" Negeri Selangor by chiabh

The Most Developed State

Selangor aka Selangor Darul Ehsan is the gateway to Malaysia... Both the entry point to the country by air and sea are located in the State... The Kuala Lumpur International Airport (KLIA) is in Sepang while the seaport is in Port Kelang... Selangor is the premier State in Malaysia and the most develeoped in terms of industries and infra-struture...

The capital of Selangor is Shah Alam where the state administration is located... Shah Alam is about 20km west of Kuala Lumpur... Other big towns in the State are Kelang, Petaling Jaya, Kajang, Rawang, Kuala Selangor and Bandar Baru Bangi... Each town has its own attractions...

the blue mosque...

Selangor is a large state... and places of interest are far apart... Some of the recommended ones are as below:

In the vicinity of Kuala Lumpur

Batu Caves
Forest Research Institute of Malaysia (FRIM)
National Zoo
Royal Selangor Visitor Centre

Further away from Kuala Lumpur

Blue Mosque in Shah Alam
FGS Dong Zen Monastery in Jenjarom
Firefly Park in Kuala Selangor
Melawati Hill in Kuala Selangor
Pulau Ketam off Port Kelang

Getting to these places will take time and effort and visitors are to be reminded that there will not always be public transport available... So the best option is always to join a tour to visit these places...
