Bukit Jugra, Kuala Langat

Bukit Jugra, Selangor (6 July, 2016)


Bukit Jugra (GPS: 2.83554, 101.4176) is a small hill in Kuala Langat District, Selangor. The forest on the hill is protected as part of Hutan Simpan Bukit Jugra. There is a hill road that winds its way up Bukit Jugra. As you go up, you will pass some ruins, followed by a Chinese cemetery, and then the Bukit Jugra Lighthouse, which has a look-out point affording splended views of the coast and estuary of Sungai Langat.

The location of Bukit Jugra was one of the reasons why Sultan Abdul Samad created his royal capital in the town of Jugra below. The hill provided navigators a landmark, even though it wasn't exactly by the coast. During colonial times, the hill was called Parcelar Hill. To the locals, the bill is also called Bukit Kerang.

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.
