Dragon tales and old charm


Tale of a dragon: Part of Sungai Langat runs through the heart of Dengkil town. The name ‘Dengkil’ is said to have originated from the local Chinese community, who called it ‘Ling Kay’ or dragon stream following a legend that a dragon had meditated here for 900 years but was driven away by the British.
