The Klang River in Kuala Lumpur

Muddy river-mouth, I am told. And when you look at this picture, it’s not difficult to see why. The city is at the confluence of two rivers, the Klang and the Gombak, my guide-book tells me, and was originally a tin-mining settlement. (You see what I mean about flyovers, by the way!)
