Speaking through the Penang, this is one city that is a UNESCO world heritage site (like Hoi of his house that), the former is one of the important island on the sea route through the Strait of Malacca, British colonists were occupied early. Today, it is one of the very interesting city of architecture and culture by as many other places in Malaysia, this is the city's first multiracial Malaysian, Chinese, Indian and original Thai origin anymore.

The article introduces the following Penang aggregated from your post Tranttlinh. You write quite interesting and full of information about Penang. Hope you will have a comprehensive view of a point to Penang Malaysia.

I first went to Penang only 2 days 1 night is too short, this time by 4 days and 4 nights were too long (so the schedule was cut one day to go Langkawi), according to her, then spent 3 days range 2 nights in Penang is sufficient.

Penang Tourism Malaysia

Linh introduce you to these places to play around Penang as city tour, Kek Lok Si Temple, the temple, Blue mansion, Peranakan mansion, Snake Temple, Tropical Spice Garden, Butterfly Farm. Brief and suggest time in order for you to arrange. Below is a simple map, I have numbered in the order of entry points are presented in, take the center of Georgetown is building Komtar Penang decent ^^ you know it will cease. 1 score as Blue mansion or Peranakan, the temple is too small for her but not very near Komtar numbered. You can save on the materials for instruction, click to save

Note before you go to these places, you should seek information on the Internet before, when the entrance fee should apply for mini-map or information referral patterns were printed (in English) to study before . For guides in the sights in Penang can speak English, Portuguese, Chinese (Cantonese, Mandarin watch some classmates that did not sound well nhá), with English people are still horrible Code Singlish much more, hehe. Rather expensive, cumbersome to go without knowing where he was going, it is a bit odd.

City tour around Georgetown

I must say that I like the architecture of Georgetown pole, every fork is the first unexpected encounter, sometimes colonial architecture, is said to be the home of the Chinese people like Chinatown in the 1990s, sometimes it is the brilliant purple pink house of the Indians. And substandard condition, new and old, rich and poor, interwoven to make up one's multicultural identity Penang.

Of course you can fully combined city tour with eateries and other attractions such as Blue mansion or Peranakan mansion will be introduced below. Tourist maps are free gifts in the hotel's reception desk, tidy street planning and Georgetown are not big enough to get lost anywhere. Time for city tour depends on you, be it one hour would be a whole day.

Kek Lok Si

This can be considered as one of the most beautiful temple complex, the most majestic Malaysia. According to his companion Mr.P Kek Lok is the transliteration of the Pure and Si is Self (Temple). Temple set high on the hills of Penang and from here there is a beautiful view over the city, with the tram to go from the lower to the upper areas of the temple. The process of restoration, new construction added to the house made up steam noon .. homophobic because too many red-green color (probably of Chinese style is so).

Points aret deducted overcrowded temple, me, I like the temple quietly, wooded and quiet. The notable attractions is the Guan Yin temple, lake killed. Both 2 times to Penang come here, time of visit: 1-2 hours.

Guan Yin Temple (Kuan Yin)

Her to the temple in 2010. Temple trip quite small, steaming incense, architecture there is nothing special (according to his personal opinion) but heard quite sacred. Temple located in Chinatown too.

Chew Jetty

This is the first world heritage by UNESCO, bungalows on the river was built in the mid 19th century by immigrants from Fujian Province, China. There are 75 houses within the protection and preservation of heritage. When you come here you will feel like stopping this time, the little house, alley, wood color on the wall or spinning fan humming sound as if the 1990s so.

Touring Time: 45 minutes (actually around only a few hundred square meters only). Just have a feeling if I breathed hard, strong one little step will intrude into the lives of the people here so (it seems something very indifferent to tourists, just glided do things everyday).

Blue mansion

(Chong Fatt Tze mansion) 14 Leith Street

The main highlight is the color of the building, so in addition to name its owner is businessman Chong Fatt Tze mansion, they used to call it the Blue mansion. House architectural blend of Western and Eastern parts of the roof, windows, staircases, corridors Built from the 1880s and now it is one of the historical sites of Penang, been as the backdrop for many films. Time should be allocated to it: 30 minutes because Blue mansion is quite small.

Peranakan mansion (Babas and Nyonyas)

It served as the residence and Chung Keng Kwee office. He was 1 Kapitan, 1 the governor title that colony of Western countries in Asia like in Melaka (colony-century Portugal 15,16), East India, Singapore. The building is a symbol of the wealth of the governor in the 19th century in the area of the Strait of Melaka (similar architecture can be seen in Melaka and Singapore), with intricate wood carving Chinese style, tiles from England.

Time devoted to visit: 30-45 '. .

Tropical Spice Garden

Situated in the relatively remote of Penang (even farther Hard Rock Hotel). Believe me, there is not anything odd flora draft but the shade of ancient trees, there are many kinds of flowers, there is a lake so it feels very cool, comfortable. And here, the first time I saw ginger, haha, after 20 years of eating ginger.

Touring Time: 30 '(combining the afternoon to go to dinner, the most logical).

Farm Butterfly (Butterfly Farm)

Butterflies lots and seasoned people, flew and landed on innocent visitors. Of course, outside the butterflies out here much more beautiful flowers. Touring Time: 2 hours.

Snake Temple

Contraindications for you afraid of snakes, but not afraid, it felt very exciting.

Touring Time: 15-30 '.

Ferrringhi Batu Beach

If you find one place to cruise, it should not come Penang which can run up a little translation is Langkawi for Langkawi has many small islands with white sand beaches long and. However, at the beach of Batu Ferringhi Penang is the main (home to the resort) has many games as skydiving, horse riding.

Langkawi Island

Oh yes, that's far from Penang to Langkawi Island, this is your contingency plan for any excess time in Penang, one day there are ferry from Penang to Langkawi (travel time about 2h45 ') but I did not take the ferry (just ask for info) so you take the trouble to inquire or google this place. We'd go from Straits Quay rent yacht to the port of Langkawi Telaga (approximately 17-20km from the center of the island), travel time without stopping halfway around 2:30 minutes. Langkawi then can go hang for panoramic cable islands, people say can go play something waterfall stream (but we did not go). Maybe someday my spare went 1-star Langkawi trip.

The other attractions

During his 2010 trip was going to be Buddhist Temple located, Tropical fruit farm (phew, that year, the two girls go as robbery in 2 days 1 night, even thought with dread). Center shopping and dining combination, people can come Straits Quay Marina Mall (this last one), Gurney Plaza and Queen's Mall. On the advice of her friend first, then do not up Penang Hill for time-consuming and had nothing on it at all.

Hotels in Penang

I suggest you refer Going booked online via Agoda.vn. This is a hotel reservation site very convenient when you go abroad. Here to see room rates in Penang: Agoda.vn

Campbell House

In 2010, I at Campbell House, in the heart of Georgetown, travel very convenient. This is one old house, but you can be assured of cleanliness.

Rasa Sayang Resort

Rasa Sayang is one member of Shangri-la system, the hotel has a private beach, garden architecture beautiful lake, Spice Market restaurant is pretty popular in Penang and Georgetown from the center about 20 minutes away.

Dinner here is quite sad but if you come on the weekend, make sure to walk along the beach to the Golden Sands resort in the next (and last one master always) have a fun beach club. 1 Rasa Sayang plus more for the staff extremely cute.

Rasa Sayang, Batu Feringgi Beach.

Hard Rock Hotel

Hard Rock system is famous now? (In Vietnam alone only Hard Rock Cafe Hotel also no system of this). At first, the design objective interior not beautiful enough for value for money, there is a unique budget only. Who likes The Beatles, the interior will be satisfied with here. 1 point more than the Hard Rock Hotel which is too far from downtown, close to 40 'on the next ride to the center of Georgetown.

Hard Rock Hotel, Batu Feringghi beach

Dining in Penang

According to me, someone adventurous and adventurous can eat Malay dishes at the night market Gurney Drive but the truth is with us, then ... pretty hard to swallow, and food was brought out just how dirty brown that . Eat Chinese or European dishes safer choice if your stomach is not very good.

Spice Market (Rasa Sayang restaurant)

Buffet here have called the top of the peak in the abundance and quality, to say hallo clown crab lobster, dessert must be more than 20 different kinds of cakes.

Hard Rock Cafe (attached to Hard Rock Hotel)

Large American-style servings, cook American style always means a lot of protein. According to him he is very good, but one should only eat 1 meal week like that for very well is bored. 1 point for a restaurant that has live music show in the evening.

China House

China House itself is one gallery inside the restaurant so it was designed with style. Although called China House but European pastry menu is very attractive. Restaurant suitable for both breakfast and lunch. This is one restaurant in Sraits Collection system.

China House, 153-155 Lebuh Pantai
