we Brits are famed for creating homes from home all over the world, not something we should be proud of how incongruous to put Tudor style buildings here, then to not allow the native citizens to enter them, happily this is not the case today The Royal Selangor Club [members only]was built in the 1880s as a little piece of England thousands of miles away from home, one of its most famous visitors was Somerset Maugham, the Padang or lawned area outside was used for polo and cricket Leave a Comment Directions: Opposite Dataran Merdeka & Sultan Abdul Samad building |

Royal Selangor is a fantastic tour to see through the working area of fine Pewter. They will show you through from the start to end of making different products. There is also a shop to purchase Pewter products, a lot cheaper here than back in Australia. Some of top items that they sell are; Pewter Rose, Hipflask, Wine Goblets, Champagne Goblets, Chopstick Rest & Wine Pourers. Also this tour includes a trip to a Bug Factory, gross but great experience, a quick stop to see some Rubber Trees (one of Malaysia's top exports) & the Batu Caves (check out my other tip pages). A shuttle bus will pick you up from your Hotel, book before you leave through your travel agent or through a local tour group.
