Masjid Kampung Seronok, Bayan Lepas, Penang (15 December 2018)


Masjid Kampung Seronok (GPS: 5.29002, 100.25616) is a village mosque for Kampung Seronok and one of the bigger mosques in the Bayan Lepas area. It is located in Kampung Seronok, which was established in 1940 when a British engineer D.W. Grehan is said to have suggested that name, which means "Village of Enjoyment". He was endeared with the village atmosphere and paid it several visits, especially after the Japanese surrender.

The Kampung Seronok Mosque may be even older than the village itself, as it is believed to be over seventy years old. Kampung Seronok has promoted itself as a model Malay village, and put in place several cultural activities such as top spinning and batik printing to attract visitors. The village also has a traditional Malay house on stilts that has been restored and preserved.

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I try my best to provide you information as accurate as I can get it to be, I do apologize for any errors and for outdated information which I am unaware.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