Shah Alam, the capital of Selangor, is located about 30 km west of Kuala Lumpur. Its skyline is dominated by the huge, blue aluminum dome of the State Mosque, i.e., Masjid Sultan Salahuddin Abdul Aziz Shah. This dome is reputed to be the largest of its kind in the world.

The state capital can also boast of having the world's only agro-forestry park, the Malaysia Agriculture Park at Bukit Cahaya Seri Alam. Shah Alam offers a beautifully landscaped recreational park that compliments the surrounding lakes and buildings.

The Shah Alam Museum, with its exciting architecture is worth a visit. An aviary is open to the public.
