Location

Desa Tanjung is 6.6 km from Magazine Circus. It is slightly outside the northern boundary of George Town, which may work perfectly for those who want to stay outside the city, and commute a short distance to it every day. It wouldn't be so ideal if you are working in the south side, say in Bayan Lepas, due to the stress of having to pass through the city every day.

Public Transport

Rapid Penang Bus 101, 103 and 104 pass along Jalan Tanjung Tokong.

Amenities

The nearest schools include Sekolah Rendah Kebangsaan Tanjung Tokong, Penang Chinese Girls High School and Convent Pulau Tikus. The nearest market is the Pulau Tikus Market. Gurney Plaza is the nearest shopping mall. Nearest petrol stations include the Caltex, Shell and Petronas along Jalan Tanjung Tokong. The nearest hospital is Penang Adventist Hospital.

Traffic

Traffic along Jalan Tanjung Tokong is heavy with congestions often building up towards the junction with Kelawei Road.
