Bukit Nanas Forest Reserve is a 10.5ha inner-city slice of tropical rainforest at the base of one of Kuala Lumpur's most prominent landmarks, the 421m-high Kuala Lumpur Tower.

The forest, gazetted as a Forest Reserve in 1906, helps to cleanse the air of its surrounding environment by acting as a purifier for dust and toxic pollutants. It was also gazetted as a Wildlife Reserve and Bird Sanctuary in 1934 and in 1950, a pristine section of about five hectares was gazetted as a Virgin Jungle Reserve.

The rich variety of flora that flourishes within the forest includes rare herbs, creepers, ferns, climbers and giant bamboo grasses.

The Bukit Nanas Forest Reserve is located right in the heart of Kuala Lumpur city. Jalan Ampang, Jalan Gereja and Jalan Raja Chulan roads allow access to the Bukit Nanas Forest Reserve.
