Siew Seng Loong Medical Hall 兆成隆药行

Siew Seng Loong Medical Hall
Siew Seng Loong Medical Hall, 2008 (7 July 2008)


Siew Seng Loong Medical Hall is a beautiful two-storey building on Pitt Street, George Town, Penang. Located at 35 Pitt Street, it was originally a godown built in the early 20th century. The ground floor has a receded façade, which provides a five-foot way of marginal width. This five-foot way is no longer of practical use. Potted plants are place where that prevents free flow of pedestrian traffic.

An interesting feature of Siew Seng Loong Medical Hall is the overhanging balcony with its wooden balustrade of timber splats. From here, one can get a good view of the Kuan Im Teng across the road. The front door is flanked by windows with moulded pilasters between them. On the right side are two openings of unequal width with keystoned arches.

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I try my best to provide you information as accurate as I can get it to be, I do apologize for any errors and for outdated information which I am unaware.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