Penang's upgraded Esplanade officially opens


GEORGE TOWN: The newly upgraded Esplanade has officially opened to the public after a six-year construction to reinforce its seawall.

Stretching 460m from the Medan Renong food court to the Royal Malaysian Navy Base, the walkways are now wider and terraced near the Cenotaph Memorial to allow people to get closer to sea and directly access the rocky revetment that is exposed during low tide.
