Introduction | St George's Church is the oldest Anglican church in Malaysia. Saint George Church, is reportedly the oldest Anglican church in Malaysia. Built by convicts, at the corner of Lebuh Farquhar and Jalan Mesjid Kapitan Keling, it has been faithfully holding services since its conception in 1818. The grand Francis Light memorial that rests in front of the church is a reflection of Penang's tribute to Francis Light, who established the island in 1786. Stroll through the grounds and if you are lucky, you might just hear sweet strains of the church choir practising. Services in English are held on Sundays at 8.30am.Address: 1 Jalan Lebuh Farguhar, 10200 Penang 由康沃斯要塞走过莱特路,再往西行到皮特尔路的交叉口,就可看到一座有白色尖塔的教堂了。圣乔治教堂(St George’s Church)有排列整齐而且造型美观的圆柱,是最具代表性的英国建筑之一。于1818年建成,是当地最古老的名胜之一。 |
