Walkabout History Since 1857

The founding of KL was almost an accident. In 1857, 87 Chinese prospectors in search of tin landed at the meeting point of the Klang and Gombak rivers and set up camp, naming the spot Kuala Lumpur, meaning ‘muddy confluence’.

KL botanical gardens, 160 acres was opened 13 May 1889, by Sir Frank Swettenham, 1st Resident Governor General of Federated Malay States

Now it's 3 to 4 times the size of Gasing, includes the Tugu, Bird, Butterfly & other Parks

Large variety of trees & plants from all over the world is still thriving now, some unique ones are Mahogany & Brazil Nut trees from the Amazon, 140 years old now & which lives up to a 1,000 years!

Tugu rainforests Park has is a carefully protected reserve with jungle trails. More than 4,000 trees averaging 8 – 10 years old, consisting of more than 230 indigenous Malaysian rainforest species are in the 60 acres site.
