About Bandar Sunway
Where to stay in Bandar Sunway
Each area has its own feel; here's who each one suits.
The township was planned. Bandar Sunway covers 800 acres laid out as one scheme, and the plan is said to follow the 15-minute city idea, which means a room inside it puts most of the district within walking range. The Lost City of Gold pulls families.
Anyone here for that attraction wants a bed on its side of Sunway City rather than out toward the rest of Subang Jaya, where the township gives way to Selangor's ordinary suburbs.
About Bandar Sunway
What are the main landmarks in Bandar Sunway?
One attraction is named. The Lost City of Gold sits inside Bandar Sunway, and it is the single landmark the record attaches to the township, in a district otherwise known for its plan rather than for monuments. The scheme itself is the sight.
Sunway City was laid out across 800 acres by the Sunway Group as an integrated township, and that design, not any older building, is what distinguishes it within Subang Jaya.
What is the history of Bandar Sunway?
The date is 1988. Bandar Sunway begins there, as an integrated township the Sunway Group developed across 800 acres of Subang Jaya, and the company's own name came from Sungai Way, a suburb in Selangor. Naming ran in one direction.
Sungai Way gave its name to the Sunway Group, the Sunway Group gave its name to Sunway City, and the township is recorded in Malaysia under both that name and Bandar Sunway.
Where is Bandar Sunway?
Bandar Sunway occupies 800 acres of Subang Jaya in Selangor, tropical ground north of the equator, planned as one continuous township.
