Temerloh is a municipality in central Pahang, Malaysia, about 130 kilometres from Kuala Lumpur along the Kuantan to Kuala Lumpur trunk road. It is the second largest urban area in Pahang after Kuantan, the state capital, and it sits at the confluence of the Pahang and Semantan Rivers. The name usually refers to the territory under the Temerloh Municipal Council, which includes Mentakab, Lanchang, Kuala Krau and Kerdau. An old town with some colonial buildings and shophouses, it has prospered in recent years as a transport hub and new industrial centre, helped by the East Coast Expressway, which links it to Kuala Lumpur and Kuantan.
