History
Kuala Lumpur grew rapidly in the 19th century on tin‑mining wealth; Royal Selangor and colonial civic buildings reflect that extractive and administrative past.
Conservation
Batu Caves is sensitive to visitor pressure—avoid littering and feeding wildlife. Choose local artisans and workshops to support sustainable livelihoods rather than mass‑produced souvenirs.
