Bank Pitis, Kota BharuBank Pitis, Kota Bharu (29 April, 2017)


Bank Pitis (GPS: 6.13086, 102.2372) is a small, rather adorable historic building in Kota Bharu, Kelantan. It houses the state treasury of Kelantan. The name "bank pitis" means "money bank", in reference to the currency used in the old days.

Bank Pitis was built during the reign of Sultan Muhammad III (1889-1890). It was also used by Sultan Muhammad IV as a bank. Bank Pitis is next to the entrance to the Istana Balai Besar, and across from the Kelantan Royal Regal Museum.

About this website



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.
