A royal town serves to provide broad linkages to the history, geography and culture of a location. The specific characteristics of a royal town establish its identity and its uniqueness. Its principal attraction may lie in its exclusive character where the royal foundations embody elements of culture, history, architecture and esthetics. In this regard, the many royal towns of Malaysia reflect a heritage of traditional Malay sovereignty. Nonetheless, some of these towns are in danger of decline as a result of unbridled development and modernization. Kuala Kangsar is among the royal towns that have much to offer in terms of historical attractions. In spite of this, the assets of this town have yet to be fully availed as tourist attractions since systematic valuation of the resources has not been undertaken. It remains unclear how promotion of the royal town can be carried out. Nevertheless, a study to determine attractions for this royal town has identified seven Royalscapes that can serve to spearhead developments to popularize the royal town of Kuala Kangsar. Using the convenience sampling approach, 500 questionnaires were distributed to prospective visitors. The study results indicated that all the identified Royalscapes were rated fairly highly. The physical aspects of the town were deemed attractive to tourists, with 75.0% expressing a desire to visit.
