Kuala Selangor District, Administrative district in Selangor, Malaysia.
Kuala Selangor District is an administrative area in Selangor that spans coastal plains and river delta zones along the Selangor River. The region contains multiple settlements and rural communities, ranging from traditional fishing villages to modern residential areas.
The area was part of regional sultanates and port settlements until European trading powers gained influence during the 1700s. Control shifted between different powers before becoming part of modern Malaysia's administrative structure.
The district maintains nine separate administrative divisions called mukims, including Api-Api, Bestari Jaya, and Tanjung Karang, each with distinct local communities.
Main roads connect the area to Kuala Lumpur and other cities, making access straightforward. Visitors can move around using local buses or private vehicles to explore the various communities and natural areas.
The area contains several nature reserves featuring mangrove swamps and wetland forests important for birds and other wildlife. These wetlands provide habitat for numerous species that breed or winter in the region.
