Скачать или смотреть Using 1929 Map to Drive from Kuala Lumpur to Klang

Driving from Kuala Lumpur to Klang using an old map from 1929, is the road still the same or changed?

In the early 20th Century, road has a secondary importance as the railway is faster, carry more cargoes and able to handle heavier goods.

Due to the increase of the number of vehicles on the road, fast development of Klang Valley, and new highways, a main road does not always be the main road for an eternity.

What are the changes we could find when the 1929 map was used to drive in 2025, almost a century later?
