Let’s Explore the Jejak Warisan Heritage Trail ๐ถ๐ปโโ๏ธ๐ถ๐ปโโ๏ธ
KKB Heritage Trail
Whatโโ๏ธ
Do you know KKB with its nickname as “Kiri Kanan Bukit” (also KKB) in Malaysia ๐ฒ๐พ’s national language which means “Left Right Hill โฐ” ~ In a way, a sleepy town surrounding with hills โฐโฐ
1๏ธโฃ of the hill ~ Bukit Batu Pahatโฐ is now famous for extreme sport ~ paragliding, aka KKB Paragliging Park currently. Not to miss the beautiful ๐๐คฉ scenery & view from this hill top ya ๐
Whyโโ๏ธ
KKB was designed by Malayaโs 1๏ธโฃst town planner Charles Reade based on the influential โgarden city movementโ of urban planning which 1๏ธโฃst initiated by Sir Ebenezer Howard back in 1898
Malaysia ๐ฒ๐พ currently has 4๏ธโฃ UNESCO sites, hope KKB can be added โ soon too
You can find 4 UNESCO Heritage Sites in #Malaysiaโ Gunung Mulu National Park, Kinabalu Park, the historic cities of Melaka and George Town, and the Lenggong Valley heritage site.
Currently, there are 6๏ธโฃ heritage spots ๐๐ from this Jejak Warisan Heritage Trail & more will be added โ soon to this trail eg. an old cinema (1953), St. Paul church, wall murals ๐จ๐ lane etc.
1๏ธโฃ. Hulu Selangor District/ Land Office Building ๐ข
KKB remains as the main administrative town of Hulu Selangor district. Yes โ , 1๏ธโฃ of its heritage still operating as the current Hulu Selangor District Land Office ๐ข
This administrative complex ๐ข rehoused the District House & the Magistrate Court. The British took a lesson from the floods tragedy by building administrative complex ๐ข on top of hill โฐ for safety purposes. The construction of the complex ๐ข was completed in 3 Nov 1930 with a cost of $172, 675.70
2๏ธโฃ. King George VI Commemorate Clock ๐ฐ Tower
This clock ๐ฐ tower is a major landmark of KKB town. It’s located at the top of Bukit Kerajaan โฐ & opposite the Hulu Selangor District/ Land Office ๐ข
It was built in 1937 to commemorate King George VI & Queen Elizabeth crowned King & Queen of England ๐ด๓ ง๓ ข๓ ฅ๓ ฎ๓ ง๓ ฟ
3๏ธโฃ. Hulu Selangor Traffic๐ฆPolice HQ ๐จ๐ฎ๐ปโโ๏ธ๐ฎ๐ปโโ๏ธ
It’s located at the top of Bukit Kerajaan โฐ & was 1๏ธโฃst built in the 1914 as a church โช named The Church of Ascension to serve the Angelic devotees. It has the physical aspects of a typical Victorian building eg. the cupola at the top of roof
It had been adaptive reused when C.C Reade (1880 – 1933) proposal of the new ๐ township that involving this hilly site โฐ as an administration centre in year 1926 ๐ข
Hmm…SiennyLovesDrawing ๐ฉ๐ป has actually missed ๐คฆ๐ปโโ๏ธ this spot from her trail exploring. Aย special thanks to her travelmate, IG @livelifelah ๐๐ปโโ๏ธ she has got the pictures ๐ธ๐ธ of Spot 3๏ธโฃ to share here
It was built around the 1930s along with the development of KKB. It was designed with the Neo-Classical Architecture style, mainly characterised by round gable windows & round tribe casement windowsย
Shophouse No.1๏ธโฃ (PWD 211) & No. 2๏ธโฃ (PWD 212) are shophouses in the historic building category. These shophouses were dispossessed by security forces during Malayan Emergency. However, there are 2๏ธโฃ versions of the story,
Version 1๏ธโฃ ~ This building is used by Communists to attack the Police ๐จ๐ฎ๐ปโโ๏ธ๐ฎ๐ปโโ๏ธStation @ Bukit Kerajaan
Version 2๏ธโฃ ~ This building has been used by the Communists forces for their meetings
In the past, this Dato Tabal street was called as Bowen street. Bowen actually meant for a long serving District Officer of Hulu Selangor in the past as mentioned in a letter written by the District Officer of Hulu Selangor to its residents about the naming of streets in KKB. All being recorded in the book ๐ named โTarikh Kuala Kubu 1780 โ 1931โ published by the Kuala Kubu History Society.

This place was named as “broken dam” aka Ampang Pecah in the Malaysia ๐ฒ๐พ ‘s national language due to the massive flood which broke the dams in the history
It was once said by the residents ๐ซ๐ญ๐ฌ that it’s constructed by magic supretitious power in 1924 & inspired by Javanese architecture with its arabesque decorations

Selangor state of Malaysia ๐ฒ๐พ is with lots of Javenese migrants ๐ฎ๐ฉ๐ซ๐ญ๐ฌ since early 1900s, hence lots of Javanese cultures are being influenced to the local Malaysians ๐ฒ๐พ๐ญ๐ฌ๐ซ
