Batu Hampar (GPS: 3.34233, 101.24668) is a stone slab on the slopes of Bukit Malawati in Kuala Selangor. A relic from the state's historic past, this slab is located at the compound of the sultan's palace. It is supported by a mount of sand. It is called batu hampar and at times, batu pemancung, meaning beheading slab. It is not know however, if any beheadings were carried out on the slab.

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.
