Despite its extremely rich historical value (George Town's founder Francis Light, among other notables, is buried there), the cemetery is seldom mentioned in tourist brochures and is consequently less often visited than other sites in Penang.
Meskipun sangat kaya akan nilai sejarah (Pendiri George Town, Francis Light dan beberapa tokoh lain dimakamkan di sana), pemakaman ini jarang disebutkan dalam brosur wisata dan akibatnya lebih jarang dikunjungi daripada situs lainnya di Penang.
