The Titi Kerawang Falls is a natural cascade on the northwest side of Penang Island. It offers the people of Penang respite from the hustle and bustle of city living. Only a 40 minute drive from George Town depending on traffic situation of the day, Titi Kerawang allows us to be surrounded by nature. The only reminder of civilisation comes from the water pipes belonging to the Penang Water Authority (PBA).
In actual fact, the Titi Kerawang falls are now much reduced from its former self, since the water utility board start tapping its flow, to meet the increasing demands of Penang's growing population. In addition, vegetable and fruit farms also get their share from this stream. Nevertheless, on particularly wet seasons, you can still expect a gushing torrent from this fall.
Titi Kerawang, Penang (16 October 2004)
To get the photographs that you see on this page, I was bitten silly by mosquitoes for this little adventure! You can see the PBB pipeline on the left side of the photo. I used a slow shutter speed to blur out the water, but other than that, no other form of special effect is employed. The reduced light of the day allows me to use a slow speed with a small aperture.

Getting there by public transport
The best way to reach Titi Kerawang is by your own transport. It is possible to get there by taking the bus (though hailing one down when you are done might be harder). Rapid Penang bus 501 passes along that road rather infrequently.

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.
