Jalan Taming Sari, Taiping, Perak (17 February 2018)
Jalan Taming Sari is the longest road in Taiping. This is the main road that cuts through the town, and hence it was known simply as Main Road during the British colonial period.
Jalan Taming Sari connects Jalan Lumba Kuda, at the intersection with State Route A2/Jalan Pekeliling in the northeast, to Jalan Taiping-Kuala Sepetang, at the junction with Jalan Kota and Jalan Stesen, in the southwest. In between, Jalan Taming Sari forms junctions and intersections with Jalan Muzium, Jalan Kelab Baru, Jalan Kelab Lama, Jalan Alang Ahmad, Jalan Manecksha, Jalan Ong Saik, Jalan Lim Tee Hooi, Jalan Lim Teong Chye, Jalan Panglima Ah Chong, Halaman Pasar, Jalan Chung Thye Phin, Jalan Yusuf, Jalan Abdul Jalil, Jalan Idris and Jalan Masjid.
Jalan Taming Sari is said to have been named after the famous kris that was wielded by the legendary warrior Hang Tuah.
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.
