Timothy Tye Cheras, SelangorCheras, Selangor (6 August, 2017)


Cheras (GPS: 3.06221, 101.76377) is a major township that straddles the border of Kuala Lumpur and Selangor. The name Cheras is believed to have been derived from the Tamil name for the ancient Chera Dynasty, but this remains unverified. This article is about the Cheras on the Selangor side (for the one in Kuala Lumpur, go to Cheras, Kuala Lumpur.)

The Cheras in Selangor is part of Hulu Langat District and is administered by the Kajang Municipal Council. Covering an area of 59 sq km, Cheras has a population of about 200,000 people, making it the most populous subdistrict in the country. The area is contiguous with Cheras, Kuala Lumpur, to the immediate north, Balakong to the west, and Kajang to the south. Sungai Langat is one of the main rivers flowing through Cheras.

About this website



Dear visitor, thank you so much for reading this page. My name is Timothy Tye and my hobby is to find out about places, write about them and share the information with you on this website. I have been writing this site since 5 January 2003. Originally (from 2003 until 2009, the site was called AsiaExplorers. I changed the name to Penang Travel Tips in 2009, even though I describe more than just Penang but everywhere I go (I often need to tell people that "Penang Travel Tips" is not just information about Penang, but information written in Penang), especially places in Malaysia and Singapore, and in all the years since 2003, I have described over 20,000 places.

While I try my best to provide you information as accurate as I can get it to be, I do apologize for any errors and for outdated information which I am unaware. Nevertheless, I hope that what I have described here will be useful to you.

To get to know me better, do follow me on Facebook!
