If you’ve ever thought “I love cities… but I also really love animals”, then welcome — you’re officially our kind of people.
We’re Roman & Fizah, a French–Malaysian travel duo who spend half our lives chasing hidden gems, good food, and places that make us feel like kids again. And Farm In The City Selangor? Ohhh, this place did exactly that.
Imagine walking through a tropical village-style park, feeding animals with your own hands, spotting peacocks casually strutting past you, and — yes — meeting a raccoon that instantly stole Roman’s heart (and maybe his dignity).
Let’s dive in. Here are 12 honest, real, why-you-should-go reasons why Farm In The City Selangor deserves a spot on your Malaysia itinerary.
Why Farm In The City Selangor Is So Special
Before we jump into the list, here’s the quick vibe check.
Farm In The City Selangor is not a zoo. It’s not a petting farm. It’s more like a beautifully landscaped Malaysian kampung (village) where animals just… live around you.
No cages. No concrete paths. Just greenery, wooden bridges, ponds, and animals roaming freely.
And yes — it’s only about 30 minutes from Kuala Lumpur. Wild.
1. You Can Touch, Feed & Interact With the Animals
Let’s start with the biggest win.
At Farm In The City Selangor, interaction isn’t optional — it’s the whole point.
You’ll feed:
- Deer
- Goats
- Sheep
- Tortoises
- Guinea pigs
- Birds
- And many more
Roman nearly cried the first time a deer gently took food from his hand. Fizah pretended to be calm but secretly took 47 photos.
This kind of hands-on experience is rare, especially so close to the city.
2. The Raccoon (Roman’s Favorite Animal, Obviously)
We need to talk about the raccoon.
If you know Roman, you know this animal lives rent-free in his heart. So when we discovered Farm In The City Selangor has an actual raccoon enclosure?
Game over.
Watching that fluffy little troublemaker eat, climb, and give serious main-character energy was easily one of our favorite moments. Roman stood there way too long. Fizah had to drag him away.
If you love raccoons even half as much as Roman does — this alone is worth the visit.
3. Feels Like a Kampung in the Middle of Selangor
One thing we truly love about Farm In The City Selangor is the atmosphere.
Wooden houses.
Bamboo fences.
Fish ponds.
Palm trees.
Village bridges.
It feels like stepping into a traditional Malaysian kampung — but with exotic animals casually chilling around you.
As travelers, we’re always chasing places with soul. This one has it.
4. Perfect for Families (But Still Fun for Adults)
Let’s be honest — some “family attractions” are… not fun for adults.
Farm In The City Selangor is different.
Yes, kids LOVE it. But adults?
- You learn things
- You slow down
- You reconnect with nature
We saw couples on dates, solo travelers, grandparents, and content creators — everyone enjoying it in their own way.
No cringe mascots. No loud rides. Just peaceful fun.
5. Educational Without Being Boring
We usually run away from anything labeled “educational.”
But Farm In The City Selangor does it right.
Each animal area includes:
- Clear explanations
- Conservation facts
- Animal habits & origins
You learn without realizing you’re learning — which is the best kind of education.
Roman now randomly drops raccoon facts in conversations. You’ve been warned.
6. You’re Supporting Ethical Animal Care
This part matters.
Farm In The City Selangor focuses on animal welfare, conservation, and education. The animals are well cared for, spaciously housed, and not stressed.
As travelers, we’re picky about animal attractions — and this one passed our personal ethics test.
If something doesn’t feel right, we leave. Here, we stayed longer.

Instagram lovers, listen closely.
Farm In The City Selangor is extremely photogenic — but in a natural way.
No neon signs. No fake backdrops.
Just:
- Greenery
- Animals
- Traditional village scenery
Roman got candid shots. Fizah got aesthetic shots. Everyone wins.
Pro tip: go earlier in the day for softer light and fewer people.
8. Calm, Peaceful & Not Overwhelming
One of the most underrated things?
The calm.
Despite being popular, Farm In The City Selangor doesn’t feel chaotic. The paths are wide, shaded, and well planned.
You can:
- Walk slowly
- Sit and watch animals
- Actually enjoy the moment
It’s surprisingly therapeutic.
9. Easy Day Trip From Kuala Lumpur
No complicated planning required.
Farm In The City Selangor is:
- About 30 minutes from KL
- Easy to reach by car or Grab
- Close to malls and restaurants
We paired it with lunch nearby and turned it into a perfect half-day escape.
City life → nature reset → food. Ideal combo.
10. Staff Are Friendly & Knowledgeable
We love when staff actually care.
At Farm In The City Selangor, the team:
- Helps with feeding
- Answers questions
- Shares animal stories
You can tell they love what they do. That energy makes the whole experience better.
11. Great Value for Money
Considering the interaction, time spent, and overall experience — Farm In The City Selangor is absolutely worth the ticket price.
You’re not paying just to “look.”
You’re paying to:
- Interact
- Learn
- Slow down
- Experience something unique
We stayed way longer than expected — always a good sign.
12. It Makes You Feel Like a Kid Again
Last reason — and maybe the most important.
Farm In The City Selangor brings back that childlike joy:
- Wonder
- Curiosity
- Simple happiness
Watching Roman talk to a raccoon like it was a long-lost friend? Priceless.
Watching Fizah giggle while feeding goats? Even better.
