Balik Pulau Lower District Syariah Court

Balik Pulau Lower District Syariah Court (9 April 2011)


Balik Pulau Lower District Syariah Court, or Mahkamah Rendah Syariah Daerah, is a court complex presently under construction (as of April 2011) along Jalan Balik Pulau. When it opens, it will hear Syariah cases involving Muslims in the Balik Pulau and Southwest District of Penang Island.

The Balik Pulau Lower District Syariah Court is a four-storey building. Its design reflects Islamic motifs such as the geometric filigree in the arched windows. The building has a dome at the porch and another at the main foyer. The domes are ochre and topped with a spire.

Getting there

The nearest bus stop is in front of the Balik Pulau Branch Library, about 40 meters away. It is served by Rapid Penang bus 401, 401E and 502.

About this website

Dear visitor, thank you so much for reading this page. My name is Timothy Tye and my hobby is to find out about places, write about them and share the information with you on this website. I have been writing this site since 5 January 2003. Originally (from 2003 until 2009, the site was called AsiaExplorers. I changed the name to Penang Travel Tips in 2009, even though I describe more than just Penang but everywhere I go (I often need to tell people that "Penang Travel Tips" is not just information about Penang, but information written in Penang), especially places in Malaysia and Singapore, and in all the years since 2003, I have described over 20,000 places.

While I try my best to provide you information as accurate as I can get it to be, I do apologize for any errors and for outdated information which I am unaware. Nevertheless, I hope that what I have described here will be useful to you.
