Jalan Laxamana, Ipoh, Perak

Jalan Laxamana, IpohJalan Laxamana, Ipoh (19 October, 2018)


Jalan Laxamana is one of the roads in the New Town of Ipoh, Perak. It is one of the few roads in the older part of Ipoh which - if I am not mistaken - does not experience a name change, since it was already Laxamana Road when it was laid out during the founding of New Town, albeit the spelling does not conform to present spelling of "laksamana". Today it is one of the main commercial streets in the city centre. Jalan Laxamana runs roughly north-south, from Jalan Veerasamy in the north to Jalan Sultan Iskandar in the south. Roads forming junctions and intersections to it include Jalan Toh Puan Chah, Jalan Sultan Idris Shah, Jalan Foo Choo Choon, and Tingkat Pasar.

Jalan Laxamana has a rather complicated traffic system. It has two-way traffic between Jalan Veerasamy and Jalan Toh Puan Chah. It has one-way traffic from Jalan Toh Puan Chah to Jalan Sultan Idris Shah. Between Jalan Sultan Idris Shah to Jalan Foo Choo Choon, it has an inverted traffic flow, with northbound traffic on the right side of the road instead of the usual left. From Jalan Foo Choo Choon to Tingkat Pasar, traffic flow is one way southbound while from Jalan Sultan Iskandar, it is northbound to Tingkat Pasar.

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I try my best to provide you information as accurate as I can get it to be, I do apologize for any errors and for outdated information which I am unaware.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