With the latest population of population 39,300, Kuala Kangsar is a district and the royal town of Perak, Malaysia. Located approximately 25 km north of Ipoh and 98 km south of George Town, Penang, Kuala Kangsar is where Kangsar River joins Perak River.
Kuala Kangsar got its name from the term 'Kuala Kurang-Sa', which literally means '100 minus one', usually interpreted as 'the 99th small tributary to flow into the Perak River'. In 1926, there was a big flood that swept the Istana Iskandariah (the palace where the sultan resided) away. The palace was then moved to a new location where it still stands until today.
Kuala Kangsar is also the site of the first rubber tree planted in the country. The rubber tree was planted by English botanist Henry Nicholas Ridley. The tree is still there to this day.
