Masjid Khairi

Masjid Khairi, Pahang Road, George Town (15 December 2008)


Masjid Khairi is a small Malay mosque along Pahang Road in George Town, Penang.

The modest-looking Masjid Khairi has a hipped roof that has been restored a number of times. It shelters a traditional-style mosque that may have been built in the early part of the 20th century, when the area had a Malay village. Since then, the village has largely evaporated into the largely Chinese urban street of today. Even the Malay-style village houses in the area has since been acquired by Chinese.
