Deva Pada Road (蒂哇路)

Jalan Deva Pada road sign (25 November 2010)


Deva Pada Road (Traditional/Simplified Chinese: 蒂哇路), known today as Jalan Deva Pada, is a minor road in George Town, Penang. It is one of the roads branching off from Nirvana Road.

As with many of the roads in the neighbourhood, Deva Pada Road derives its name from Buddhism. According to Wisdom Library (www.wisdomlib.org), devapada sutta is defined as the four paths of Buddhism that lead to the devas, namely unwavering loyalty to the Buddha, to the Dhamma, to the Sangha and the cultivation of virtues dear to the Ariyans.

Getting there

Deva Pada Road is not served by bus. The nearest bus stop is along Perak Road (Rapid Penang bus 10). From there, enter Lim Eow Thoon Road, then turn right to Nirvana Road, and eventually you will arrive at the junction with Deva Pada Road on your right.

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I try my best to provide you information as accurate as I can get it to be, I do apologize for any errors and for outdated information which I am unaware.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