St. George Church

St. George Church, the oldest Anglican church in Southeast Asia, is one of Malaysia's most well-known religious structures. The gigantic Grecian columns, which immediately remind you of Greek temples like the Parthenon, are the most remarkable characteristic of the church's architecture.

The church's interior is a cool pastel blue with a marble floor, and there's a beautiful pavilion at the entrance with a memorial to Sir Francis Light in the shape of a Greek temple.

The temple's surrounding plants offer a sense of calm, and the church's ambiance makes it a perfect setting for tourists to take photos and a worthwhile place to visit, despite its central location. The environment is tranquil and serene, and the place exudes a genuine feeling of spirituality.
