Jalan Stesen 1 Klang Railway Station was built in 1890. The road that intersects the station, “Jalan Stesen” was named after it. The construction of the railway station has promoted the economic growth in that area. As a response to that, businessmen choose to build the shophouses near the railway station, facing the main street which is “Jalan Stesen” in order to attract more customers.
