Kuala Kubu Bharu

Malaysia

Rebuilt after a catastrophic 1926 flood swept away almost the entire original settlement, Kuala Kubu Bharu is a planned garden township in Selangor, Malaysia, designed in 1925 by the British Federated Malay States' first government town planner, Charles Crompton Reade. The town sits on the Sungai Selangor and serves as a gateway to Fraser's Hill, with pre-war shophouses lining its streets and two buildings — Guan Yin Gu Si Temple and Al-Hidayah Mosque — surviving from before the flood.
