Location of Desa Embun Emas

Desa Embun Emas is 9.7 km from Komtar. A plus point about Hillside is that it has quite a number of good restaurants. However, it is quite a distance from the city, and if that's where you are working, you should give this some consideration. I wouldn't recommend it for people working in the south side, as you have to pass through the city to go to places like the Bayan Lepas Free Industrial Zone.

The nearest bus stop is at Jalan Sungai Kelian a moderate distance from the apartment. Rapid Penang Bus 104 pass through there.

Traffic situation at Desa Embun Emas

Traffic is heavy but smooth along Jalan Tanjung Bungah, now that the road has been widened. I am perplexed, however, by the way the road lines are drawn, forcing straight-moving motorists to swerve to the left at each approaching traffic light. I consider it a disgraceful reflection of our road planning.
