Pekan Cina-Pekan Melayu Arch, Alor Setar (30 July, 2016)


Pekan Cina-Pekan Melayu Arch (GPS: 6.11574, 100.36362) is an arch in Alor Setar, Kedah. It is built across Persiaran Sultan Abdul Halim, on the northern side of the bridge across Sungai Kedah, where the road meets Jalan Sultan Muhammad Jiwa.

The Pekan Cina-Pekan Melayu Arch was erected by the Kedah Chinese Chamber of Commerce to celebrate the solidarity between the Chinese and Malay communities in Alor Seter. As one approaches the arch from the south, one may see the signage showing that Pekan Cina is on the left side of the road, while Pekan Melayu is on the right.

About this website

Hello and thanks for reading this page. My name is Timothy and my hobby is in describing places so that I can share the information with the general public. My website has become the go to site for a lot of people including students, teachers, journalists, etc. whenever they seek information on places, particularly those in Malaysia and Singapore. I have been doing this since 5 January 2003, for over twenty years already. You can read about me at Discover Timothy. By now I have compiled information on thousands of places, mostly in Peninsular Malaysia and Singapore, and I continue to add more almost every day. My goal is to describe every street in every town in Malaysia and Singapore.
