Bangi is a small town situated on the south of the district of Hulu Langat,
in Selangor, Malaysia. It is
roughly situated between the towns of Kajang (9 kilometres away) and
Putrajaya (formerly Prang Besar)
(also 9 kilometres away), and is linked to
KTM Komuter commuter train
services via the
Bangi Komuter station. The town is surrounded by palm oil
estates; a Malaysian Palm Oil Board / UKM research station is also based
close to the town.
Bangi is not to be confused with Bandar Baru Bangi, a newer and larger
township several kilometres north, similar to the town only by name and
located closer to Kajang.
There is a main road with shops houses on both side of the road. Behind
these shophouses, 30 acres of rubber estates were converted to residential
housing, now known as Kampong Aman. The town is surrounded by small Malays
Kampongs, within 3 kilometers distance, namely, Kampung Bangi, Kampung
Bahagia, Kampung Batu Lima, Kampung Rinching. Over the last 20 years, many
palm oil estates had been covered to townships.
Within a 3 kilometers distance, there are Seri Putra Bangi, Bukit Mahkota
Bangi, Bangi Avenue, Taman Impian and etc.
