Pintu Gerbang Dataran Cheng Ho (GPS: 6.13061, 102.24321) is an arch in Kota Bharu, Kelantan. It is located across Jalan Kebun Sultan, near Nasi Kukus Kebun Sultan. This arch was completed in October 2017. It was the brainchild of the late Datuk Nik Abdul Aziz Nik Mat, the Menteri Besar of Kelantan. The architecture of the arch is in the Chinese style to mark the location of the Kota Bharu Chinatown.

During the official opening of Pintu Gerbang Dataran Cheng Ho, the present Menteri Besar Datuk Ahmad Yakob said that the new landmark is to reflect the Chinese community in Kelantan. The name Cheng Ho was selected to commemorate the famous seafaring admiral Zheng He who has a close association to local history.

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I try my best to provide you information as accurate as I can get it to be, I do apologize for any errors and for outdated information which I am unaware.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