Malaysia Selangor

Petaling Jaya (Commonly called "PJ" by locals) is a major Malaysian city originally developed as a satellite township for Kuala Lumpur. Petaling Jaya is surrounded by the Malaysian capital, Kuala Lumpur to the east, Sungai Buloh to the north, the capital of Selangor, Shah Alam to the west and Subang Jaya to the south. Damansara is the main shopping hub of Petaling Jaya with many of the city's shopping malls being located there. A prominent landmark in PJ is the Kota Darul Ehsan arch which symbolically marks the boundary between Kuala Lumpur and Petaling Jaya. This arch straddled the Federal Highway which was originally the only highway link between Petaling Jaya and Kuala Lumpur.
