Kuala Selangor is a very interesting place. Maybe you would like to get better acquainted with this holiday destination. Browse through one more other site  devoted solely on the town of Kuala Selangor!

On the historical Bukit Melawati, there are 3 residential buildings - that for the District Officer, Districts Engineer and the guests!

In the tradition of old houses, it is practice to have covered car park. This Resthouse has that.

The building perching on the hill, is sharing its compound with the Melawati Fort.

No wonder that it is the preferred venue for lunch by the working community. The building has 7 rooms, all equipped with split unit air-con and charges a very reasonable Rgt. 40 per night.
