Bandar Sungai Buaya, also known as Bandar Baru Sungai Buaya, [1] is a township in the Hulu Selangor district of Selangor, Malaysia. Located near Rawang, [2] the township is accessible via the main road (Federal Route 1208), which connects to the industrial areas and other housing areas [3] and a North-South Expressway interchange nearby. [4]
The township began constructions in 1996 under the developer Bandar Sungai Buaya Sdn Bhd, [1] which ended its operations in 2008. The ownership of Bandar Sungai Buaya has since been handed over to Murna Jaya Development Berhad. [5]
Among the housing areas in the township include Melatisari, Cemperaisari, Imaisari [3] and Kasturisari. [6]
A village of the same name, Kampung Sungai Buaya, is also located here on another road. It was once a Felda settlement. [7] [8]
Sungai Buaya gets its name from the legend of a white crocodile who is said to have lived there and witnessed by Sungai Buaya settlers.
