Padang Kota Lama
Location:
Jalan Padang Kota Lama, Penang, Malaysia
Tel: +60 4 261 6663 (Penang Tourist Centre)
Description:
The Padang (field) is the venue for most of the island's important events, such as the Chingay Parade during the Lunar New Year. In the olden days, Sepoy regiments used it for target practice and the Manila Band played from a bandstand from 1890 to 1954. Portions of the Padang's expanse have been carved out for a children's playground, a hawker centre selling Malay food and a much-needed car park.
