SELANGOR

URBAN HERITAGE • JAN 2012 • SUNGAI BESAR, KUALA KUBU BARU

The state of Selangor brings about images of hectic city living, swanky modern neighbourhoods, squeaky new malls, and the likes of urban developments. Yet just a little venture off the beatan highways brings us to sleepy little towns where charming chinese coffee shops, rusty mechanic outlets and old indian barbers still thrive. This is a collection of photos from our recent exploration into these quaint towns forgotten by the wave of modernity.

If you're into photography, don't just wait for the next flight out to warm your cameras up. Go embark on a heart-warming discovery that is just a short drive away from KL, and discover for yourself this warm bunch of sweet oldtown folks that are always willing to stop, smile and pose for you, and share a little joke or story, or two.
