Jalan Sultan, Kuala Lumpur

Jalan Sultan, Kuala Lumpur (6 July, 2016)


Jalan Sultan is a street in the inner city of Kuala Lumpur. It forms the shape of the letter "J", with the north end connected to Jalan Tun Tan Cheng Lock, where it continues as Jalan Tun Tan Siew Sin; and the west end continues as Jalan Sultan Mohamed. That cornering is the Pasar Seni Bus Terminal. Just before the terminal, Jalan Sultan curves to the north to become Jalan Hang Kasturi.

Jalan Sultan was originally Sultan Street. It was named in honour of Sultan Abdul Samad (1804-1898)¹. This came about because Sultan Abdul Samad once had a palace nearby. Around the 1880s, the British colonial government tried to get the sultan to move to Klang, as the British Resident of Selangor was residing there. But Sultan Abdul Samad preferred his palace in Jugra, so he dragged his feet over the matter, and the palace in Klang did not get built during his reign. It was only after his demise that the subsequent sultan moved to Klang.

About this website

Hello and thanks for reading this page. My name is Timothy and my hobby is in describing places so that I can share the information with the general public. My website has become the go to site for a lot of people including students, teachers, journalists, etc. whenever they seek information on places, particularly those in Malaysia and Singapore. I have been doing this since 5 January 2003, for over twenty years already. You can read about me at Discover Timothy. By now I have compiled information on thousands of places, mostly in Peninsular Malaysia and Singapore, and I continue to add more almost every day. My goal is to describe every street in every town in Malaysia and Singapore.
