Tanjung Tokong is a suburb of George Town in Penang, Malaysia. It is located along the northeastern coast of Penang Island, next to Pulau Tikus and 4 km (2.5 mi) northwest of the city centre. Over the recent decades, the former fishing village has been transformed into an upper class residential suburb of George Town, with high-rises such as Straits Quay lining the coast. At present, the reclamation of land is ongoing off the shores of Tanjung Tokong, creating a new township – Seri Tanjung Pinang.

  • 丹绒道光(馬來語:Tanjung Tokong)是马来西亚槟城州东北县乔治市的市郊,距乔治市市中心约4.2公里。该市取名自一座建于18世纪的中华古庙,原是一个渔村,后于1970年代至80年代受毗邻的乔治市市区建设而有所发展。 据史书记载,丹绒道光在法兰西斯·莱特于1786年初抵槟岛时已有住户,为槟城最早的村落,也是海外华人在槟岛的首个移居点。其中三位客家华人即张理、邱兆进及马福春早在1745年到达槟城,在丹绒道光过着打渔生活,死后化身为大伯公,被尊奉为华侨的开辟者。1970年代,该市在马来西亚第二任首相敦阿都拉萨推行的村落重组计划下兴起,步入迅速现代化进程,如今可见住宅高楼在海岸线拔地而起。 2004年,因处于槟岛北岸,丹绒道光曾受印度洋海啸袭击。 (zh)
