Istana Alam Shah, Royal palace in Klang, Malaysia

Istana Alam Shah features a central golden dome supported by an octagonal pillar and two blue-domed towers at its corners displaying Middle Eastern architectural elements.

The current palace, completed in 1960, replaced the former Istana Mahkota Puri that stood at the same location from 1903 until its demolition in 1957.

The palace serves as the primary venue for royal ceremonies of the Selangor royal family, including coronations and traditional state functions throughout the year.

The palace complex includes two distinct horseshoe-shaped entrance porches, with one specifically designated for royal family members and official dignitaries.

From its elevated position on a hillside, the palace offers views of Sultan Suleiman Shah Mosque and contains fifteen rooms constructed with wood and marble materials.
