San Kiang Cemetery

San Kiang Cemetery, Batu Uban, Penang (3 September 2020)


San Kiang Cemetery (GPS: 5.3461, 100.30409) is a Chinese cemetery in the Batu Uban neighbourhood of Gelugor, Penang. It occupies Lot 146 and 10371 (formerly 147) of Mukim 13, Daerah Timor Laut. The cemetery belongs to the Penang San Kiang Association, a Chinese clan association which has its clan office at Lorong Macalister.

According to information gathered, the San Kiang Cemetery dates back to at least 1951, if not earlier, when Lot 146 was no longer big enough and so the adjacent Lot 147 was also purchased through funding received from various benefactors. Once located in a very rural part of Penang, the cemetery is today hemmed in by high-rise apartments and the Century Garden housing estate.

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I try my best to provide you information as accurate as I can get it to be, I do apologize for any errors and for outdated information which I am unaware.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