Sungai Titi TerasSungai Titi Teras, Balik Pulau (16 February 2013)


Sungai Titi Teras is one of the main rivers in Balik Pulau, on the west coast of Penang Island. It flows west to become Sungai Kongsi, which beyond Jalan Baru becomes Sungai Kuala Jalan Baru before discharging into the Straits of Malacca at Kuala Jalan Bahru.

The source of Sungai Titi Teras is somewhere behind the pekan of Balik Pulau. From there, it starts its journey west. Jalan Air Putih (Federal Route 6) crosses it at the southern border of the village of Titi Teras. From there, Sungai Titi Teras makes a few zig-zag bends before straightening up as it approaches Jalan Kampung Paya Kongsi. There are village houses on the banks of the river, from the time when villagers depended on it for fresh water. Somewhere in Kampung Paya Kongsi it flows into Sungai Kongsi, and from there continues west.

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I try my best to provide you information as accurate as I can get it to be, I do apologize for any errors and for outdated information which I am unaware.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