Churches in Pangkor Town is a cluster of historic Christian places of worship located in the main town of Pangkor Island, Perak, Malaysia. These churches, including the Anglican and Methodist buildings, date from the early 20th century and serve the local Chinese and Tamil congregations. Visitors can walk between the churches within a 15-minute stroll and observe their simple colonial-era architecture.
