Statue of Francis Light

4.3(12 reviews)

About

Look for Statue of Francis Light in Penang for local business, an artwork standing at Georgetown, 10200 George Town, Penang, Malasia. Reaching it from the main resorts and towns is simple, since George Town anchors the island's transport and sits within easy range of Batu Ferringhi, Gurney Drive, Tanjung Bungah and Teluk Bahang.

The address places the artwork in George Town itself, the historic core of Penang, with Georgetown Heritage close by and Penang Hill, Balik Pulau and Teluk Bahang further out. As an artwork rather than a shop or hotel, it belongs to the island's public monuments and commemorative pieces.

A 4.3 out of 5 average across 12 reviews reflects steady appreciation from those who seek it out, and two photographs on the listing show the monument before a visit.

Malaysia was formed in 1963 from Malaya, Sabah, Sarawak and Singapore, and Singapore left the federation in 1965. On Malaysian islands, motorbikes, taxis and rental cars are the usual ways to get around. The equatorial climate brings high humidity and rain throughout the year, while Malay is the national language and English, Mandarin, Tamil and Chinese dialects are widely spoken.
