All about Kuala Selangor
A traditional village along the western coast of peninsular Malaysia, Kuala Selangor is surrounded by lush, rugged mountains and built around the winding, palm-tree-lined course of the mighty River Selangor. The gleaming white Altingsburg Lighthouse, built in 1907, stands high above the town on the Bukit Melawati hill, where it guides maritime traffic in the Straits of Malacca. Traces of the Kota Melawati fort, which dates back to the 16th century, also remain on the hill, and you may pass silver leaf monkeys in the trees as you take in the captivating views of the coastal region.
Kuala Selangor Nature Park, a nearly 800-acre site, features a mangrove swamp forest and a colorful array of native birds and animals, including iguanas and monkeys. As night falls, travel along the River Selangor to catch the spectacular display of the fireflies in the berembang mangrove trees. During the day, head across the water to the uncharted island called Sky Mirror, which only appears at low tide and creates a dazzling mirror reflection for seemingly impossible photographs.
What are the top things to do in Kuala Selangor?

A striking 74-foot-tall gateway with five tiers and intricate carvings welcomes you to the Sri Shakti Temple on the outskirts of Kuala Selangor. This Hindu temple is surrounded by an ornate stone wall, and 18-foot-tall granite frames stand beside the temple entrance. Among the statues you’ll find inside are those of a baby elephant and a lion made from a single block of granite.
