Bukit Malawati is a rich historical site, making it one of Kuala Selangor’s most popular attractions. Also known as Malawati Hill, this small peak was once home to a mighty fortress built by Sultan Ibrahim of Selangor towards the end of the 17th century, in an effort to safeguard the state from the Dutch forces that had just conquered Malacca, down south the coast.
