It was the civil capital of Selangor in an earlier era prior to the emergence of Kuala Lumpur and the current capital, Shah Alam. Port Klang, which is located in the Klang District, is the 12th busiest transshipment port and the 12th busiest container port in the world. A comfortable pair of sneakers or sandals will help make this walk, guaranteed to be an eye-opener for both locals and tourists, more fun and enriching.

It was recently converted into the Royal Gallery museum to showcase the Royal Collections of the late Sultan Salahuddin Abdul Aziz including a range of magnificent artefacts covering his reign.
The former Chartered Bank building (now Chennai Silk Sarees) Next to the Royal Gallery is the former Chartered Bank building. This neoclassical building, which dates from 1874, was the first bank to be opened in Klang. During World War II the Japanese used the premises to interrogate and execute prisoners of war. The building has more recently been renovated and it is now occupied by Chennai Silk, a retailer of saris, fabrics and more.
