St. George Church

圣乔治教堂

从博物院出来以后,我们就继续沿着华盍街走。我们经过圣乔治教堂。这一栋圣公会的教堂拥有将近两百年的历史。在马来西亚已经很少看到这种典型的英国风格的教堂。宽阔的草原,给人有种回到上个世纪英国殖民时的风光。英国人当年于1818年把这间教堂建好。2007年,国家把这间教堂也列为其中一件国家遗产。我们没有进到教堂里头。我们停留在教堂外面拍照。在繁华的城市里,突然看到这么一间的教堂,教堂并没有给我一个格格不入的感觉,反而让我觉得她已经是槟城的一份子。如果将来有机会,希望可以到里头去看当年英国人是怎样的设计这间教堂。

After we came out from Penang Museum, we walked along Farquhar Lebuh. We passed by St. George Church. This Anglican Church is about 200 years old. In Malaysia, we seldom see this kind English style church. The field in front of the church will lead people feel like in the last century. This church was built by British at year 1818. In year 2007, the church was declared as one of the National Treasures of Malaysia. We stood in front of the church and took some pictures. Standing in middle of the concrete jungles, the church never give us a felt like it is not belong to this land, but it make me felt like it is part of Penang. I wished that I can go into the church in my next visit to see how the British design and built the church.
