  MALAYSIA: Street of Harmony (Half Day Tour)




Where else in the world can you find a street with so many places of worship of different faith, all within a one kilometre radius? The walking tour begins from St. George’s Anglican Church, oldest in Malaysia, to the Taoist Goddess of Mercy Temple which survived the last two world wars. Across the street is Little India with its colourful Sri Mariamman Temple decorated with 40 statuettes of Hindu Gods. Further down is Cheah Kongsi, a Chinese ancestral clan-house cum temple. Then view the nearby Kapitan Keling Mosque, the first Arab-Indian Muslim mosque built in Penang. From Yap Kongsi, another clan-house dedicated to the patron deity of the Yap Clan, enjoy a short trishaw ride back to where the walk began.

Departure: Daily Morning
Duration: 3 hours
