Penang Island

Penang Island is a wonderful mix of culture, history, and food. George Town’s streets are full of colorful street art and colonial buildings, making it perfect for walking and exploring. The island is famous for its food, from hawker stalls to trendy cafés, and every meal feels like an adventure. You can also enjoy beautiful beaches, temples, and a lively night market scene. Penang is a place where you can relax and discover something new every day — highly recommended for travelers to Malaysia.

Being in Penang Malaysia.... I learned a lot about it's multi cultural society....it's food, people and way of life, all contribute in making Panang such a lively place to live. If you love history and learning about culture and what makes a country unique, taking a Heritage tour through George Town is definitely a way to gain some knowledge. From Little India with their many businesses, Hindu temples and street food, to Mosques, Bhudists & Chinese temples, and churches built side by side while everyone worship in peace and harmony. Penang is definitely one of those cities where you get a feeling of community spirit, people were generally friendly and welcoming. No pushy merchants...definitely a cultured people.

A very wonderful place to go to for a holiday. Be it with a loved one or together with friends. Food here is abundant and really good. A lot of sight seeing. Nice night life. Shops for days. Wonderful beaches. However of you are thinking of safety. Don't go alone. Better in groups as this is still a 3rd world place. Shisha beside the beach with a Starbucks in hand. Visiting the mountain on the love bridge. Going to the wonderful shopping malls. A place worthwhile with the right people.

A nice place to relax from the city buzz.. Simply relax, watch sight, good scenersnies and silence .. Penang is like a old world charm. There are modern buildings as well, yet old I'd still maintained. Life is much laid back there. Lots of tourists from across the world. Some places are made dirty by some careless tourists like casual littering. But overall a good weekend getaway. There are many places to visit from nature lovers to history, all can enjoy. Loads of cuisines to try. Just plan a weekend and extend few more days, 5 days or a week would be better. Simply recline, stroll, click pics, feel the vibe, dont dirty the island and go back with beautiful memories , relaxed mind and lungs filled with oxygen.

Although the traffic on the island is tremendous, the island has great food to offer, great tourist spots, hiking and explorations spots, beaches and night spots. It has something to suit all who visits the island. You do need time to explore the local sites and not the tourist areas to experience the Penangite life

We went up the heritage trail. A lot of steps and it's very hot. You can also take the train up. There is a food court and various activities at the top. Going down, the Penang hill trail is recommended. It's a quick descent and you have beautiful views of Penang and Georgetown.

This is great island waiting for you to explore all new experience here, with so many kind food and so great any view, from top of Penang hill to the ground of Georgetown Penang heart city here waiting so many place for u to look around and food to eat. And a great shopping mall wait u to spent all your cash...welcome to Penang guy's

Penang is one of the most beautiful places to visit or live for expats. The nature, hill, and see provide a mixed nature paint. However, as any other tropical place, the insects, lizards, and snakes are thriving.

I really like Penang. Medical is cheap. Food is cheap. Medication is cheaper. Traffic sucks. Heat and humidity is abysmal. Rain can last a long time. People are nice. About the food... Food is cheap. Food is amazingly tasty. Food can be fast. Food can be super high end.. Food can be spicy. No matter the food, you can rest assured that the food will be delicious. Be sure to have cash on hand because i have yet find a hawker who takes credit cars. Bring lots of tissue paper because hawkers don't normally offer them. But don't worry, the food will be worth it.
