Lengkok Nipah, Sungai Dua

Lengkok Nipah, Sungai Dua (28 February 2013)


Lengkok Nipah is a main road in Sungai Dua, Penang. It passes through the housing developments of Taman Jubilee and Taman Lip Sin. The road connects Jalan Sungai Dua to Jalan Bukit Gambir. It forms a number of junctions with minor roads, among them Lengkok Nipah 4, Lengkok Nipah 2, Jalan Nipah, Lorong Nipah 3 and Lorong Nipah.

As with Jalan Nipah, Lengkok Nipah was named after the palm tree Nipa fruticans which is often found in wetlands and swampy places. The Lengkok Nipah area itself used to be vegetable farms before it was developed into the present housing estates. The rural houses began making way for the urban development in the late 1970s, accelerating in the 80s and 90s.

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I try my best to provide you information as accurate as I can get it to be, I do apologize for any errors and for outdated information which I am unaware.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