Selangor river near Kuala Kubu

Last Saturday I headed north towards the small town of Kuala Kubu Baru and saw this bridge crossing the Selangor river.

Here's a look downriver. Somewhere in the background lies the mouth of the Kubu river, hence the name Kuala (estuary of) Kubu. The area got flooded when a dam burst and a new small town was built on higher ground to be called Kuala Kubu Baru (baru = new, thus new Kuala Kubu).

The Selangor river has its source at the main range of mountains called Banjaran Titiwangsa.

A look upriver towards the mountains. For the record this is the 800th article in this blogspot.
