Part 2

after visiting the temple, we headed to this church

It's so magnificent and beautiful right?

It's St. George Church

St. George Church is situated on the corner of Lebuh Farquhar and Jalan Masjid Kapitan Keling.

 It is the oldest Anglican church in south east Asia and the largest in Malaysia.

 It is named after the patron saint of England Christendom St. George.

 Many churches are named after him found in many parts of the world.
 St George has served the fountain of inspiration to writers (like Shakespeare), artist and musician.
