Real Estate Review: Taman Desa Ria, Sungai Ara
Taman Desa Ria is a major housing estate in Sungai Ara, Penang. It occupies the land which was formerly the Sungai Ara Estates belonging to the family of David Brown, one of the largest land owners in Penang in the 19th and early 20th century. Taman Desa Ria has a mix of residential properties ranging from flats to apartments, condominiums, low-cost houses, to upscale bungalows.
Location of Taman Desa Ria, Sungai Ara
Taman Desa Ria is 16.1 km from Komtar. It is not the most ideal place to stay if you are working in the city, as it is simply too far, and you will wade through congested roads all the way. It is more appropriate for people working in the south side, such as at the Bayan Lepas Industrial Zone.
Public Transport at Taman Desa Ria, Sungai Ara
Rapid Penang Bus No. 302, 305 and 308 pass through Jalan Dato Ismail Hashim. The distance to walk from Taman Desa Ria can be very far - over one kilometer, if you live in the deepest part of the housing estate.
Traffic along Jalan Dato Ismail Hashim is heaviest between the Sungai Ara village and the junction of Jalan Kenari. The junction of Jalan Bayan and Jalan Dato Ismail Hashim is a source of congestion, especially during rush hour, when traffic queues can slow traffic to a crawl.

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.
