Bukit Tambun Mural"Welcome to Bukit Tambun" Mural (29 June 2016)


The village of Bukit Tambun (GPS: 5.27247, 100.45014) in Seberang Perai has embraced street art in a big way. With the leadership of the village headman and the JKKK Bukit Tambun (village leadership committee), Bukit Tambun village is painting itself in rainbow colours. The theme is not specific and is often whimsical, ranging from comicbook characters to famous celebrities. Sharing wall space are the likes of Marilyn Monroe, Bruce Lee, illunionist David Copperfield and Woody (of Toy Story). The murals certainly add colour and gaity to the village.

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While I try my best to provide you information as accurate as I can get it to be, I do apologize for any errors and for outdated information which I am unaware.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.
