Templer's Park, Forest reserve in Rawang, Malaysia.

The 1,214-hectare forest contains multi-tiered waterfalls, jungle streams, and hiking trails throughout the natural landscape of Selangor state.

In September 1954, Sultan Hishamuddin Alam Shah of Selangor dedicated the park as a wildlife sanctuary, naming it after British High Commissioner Gerald Templer.

The reserve functions as an educational center where visitors learn about Malaysian wildlife, including the rare Xenophidion schaeferi snake discovered in 1988.

The park operates daily from 8:00 to 18:00, offering facilities such as picnic grounds, fishing spots, parking lots, public toilets, and food stalls.

The cave Gua Anak Takun houses a population of Liphistius batuensis, a rare species of trapdoor spider found only in this region.
