View Southeast Asia on the mapThe area around the port is a working district where container yards and fishing-village-like water settlements mix. Kuala Lumpur, the destination, is a multiethnic city where high-rise towers, mosques, architecture from the former British-ruled era and street-food districts sit side by side, so dense sightseeing is possible even on a short visit.

Port Klang (Kuala Lumpur)

Port Klang (Kuala Lumpur) · Malaysia · View on map

Port Klang, Malaysia's largest cargo port, serves as the outer port for the capital, Kuala Lumpur, and a cruise port of call. The port itself has a strongly industrial character, so many passengers travel by car to explore the capital, about one hour away.
