Georgetown,
Pulau Pinang
George Town (also less commonly spelt as Georgetown) is the capital
of the state of Penang in Malaysia. Named after Britain's King
George III, George Town is located on the north-east corner of
Penang Island.
George Town is one of the
few cities in the world to hold the distinction of having conferred
a city status twice, first in 1957 by Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth
II, and again in 2015 by the Malaysian Federal Government. On 7 July
2008, George Town was, together with Malacca, formally inscribed as
a UNESCO World Heritage Site. It is officially recognised as having
a unique architectural and cultural townscape without parallel
anywhere in East and Southeast Asia.
George Town is well
connected by roads, buses, etc. The Jelutong Expressway connects the
city to Bayan Lepas and the Penang International Airport. With this
highway, trips to the airport were cut short to 30 minutes instead
of almost an hour in the past. The Penang International Airport
serves as the main airport of the northern part of Malaysia.
To get over to Butterworth in the mainland, the Penang Ferry Service
at Weld Quay operates every day since 1920. Passengers, cars and
motorcycles can all travel in the ferry. Other than that, commuters
can drive to the Penang Bridge, located in Gelugor, to cross over to
the mainland. To travel elsewhere around Malaysia, through the
Penang Bridge, commuters can take the North-South Expressway to
reach their destinations.
