It is good to see how the place has been renovated and revamped to a great and modern looking urban park with a playground, a marketplace with occasional events and a canal, with the old trees retained. Also, it is located in the middle of Georgetown, just walking distance from Komtar and 1st Avenue. Nice place to hangout and have a walk.

This is a good redevelopment of the Sia Boey area. There is a playground for kids to enjoy. The playground is built sturdy and maintained well by the city council MBPP. Kudos to them. The disadvantage is lack of parking around the area. There is no public restroom in the vicinity. It is within walking distance to 1st Avenue mall.

So far its fun for my kids to play. Only problem is parking area not convenient. Further more the slide is dark inside even though there's a light on the top of the structure.

In Sia Boey's urban embrace, Where history whispers through each space, I wandered on an evening's grace, Amidst the remnants of time's embrace. Once a vibrant hub, bustling and grand, Sia Boey stood as Penang's heart, hand in hand, A market square where cultures entwined, Trade and life's tapestry uniquely aligned. Now, a haven for those seeking respite, Sia Boey Urban Archaeological Park, a delight, Strolling amidst echoes of the past, A tranquil escape from city's fast. Ancient bricks and fragments worn, Tell tales of eras since long gone, As I sauntered beneath shaded trees, Imagination danced with each gentle breeze. The air hummed with a bygone tale, Of merchants, artisans, a vibrant trail, And in this moment, I could feel, The whispers of history, surreal. With each step, the park unveiled, Layers of stories, carefully veiled, A symphony of cultures interlaced, In Sia Boey's memory, embraced. As the evening sun began to wane, A sense of wonder did remain, For in Sia Boey's hallowed ground, A legacy of the past I found. So, dear friend, your evening walk, In Sia Boey's embrace, let history talk, Let the park's enchantment guide your way, As you wander through its ancient display.

Used to be one of the dirtiest river back then, but it has now transformed into a clean river, with crystal clear water, and even fishes can survive. Kudos to the local authorities and Penangites. It's a small and leisure park, suitable for evening walks. Nice place. Worth visiting. Parking can be difficult. But there's a private parking area right behind the park, and it costs RM3.
