The Istana Negara (English: National Palace; Jawi: ايستان نڬارا) is the official residence of the Yang di-Pertuan Agong (King of Malaysia). It is located along Jalan Tuanku Abdul Halim (formerly Jalan Duta) near Taman Duta, northwestern Kuala Lumpur. The palace opened in 2011 and replaced the old Istana Negara which was located at a different compound in central Kuala Lumpur.
The palace complex has an area of 97.65 hectares, 22 domes, and is split into three main portions: the Formal Component, Royal Component and Administration Component.[1]
There are 3 entrances to the palace. The first is through the main gateway entrance via Jalan Tuanku Abdul Halim flyover for the Yang di-Pertuan Agong, Raja Permaisuri Agong, Sultan and Sultanah of the State, Yang di-Pertua Negeri, Diplomats and Government Head, Prime Minister and Deputy Prime Minister and wife. The second entrance is located at Jalan Semantan – Dungun serves as a main entrance for the Royal Guest and VIP. The third entrance at Jalan Sri Hartamas is meant for members of the general public that have an appointment with the Yang di-Pertuan Agong and Raja Permaisuri Agong and also the Palace Administration's Staff.
