  • Kek Lok Si Temple
    During the British colonial era, the Chinese community in Penang flourished, practicing their faith with devotion and building many grand temples—some said to rival, if not surpass, those in China. One of the most renowned is Kek Lok Si, often described as the largest Buddhist temple complex in Southeast Asia, resembling a spiritual theme park. Built in 1985, visitors can learn about Buddhism, Taoism, and Confucianism while exploring its beautifully crafted pagodas, vibrant lanterns, intricate statues, and peaceful gardens. Don’t miss the breathtaking view of George Town from the temple grounds. As the locals say: “You haven’t been to Penang unless you’ve visited Penang Hill and Kek Lok Si.”
  • Penang Hill, is a popular tourist destination known for its cool climate, panoramic views, and rich biodiversity. Rising 833 meters above sea level, it offers a refreshing escape from the tropical heat below. Accessible by the historic funicular railway, the hill features attractions like The Habitat, colonial-era buildings, temples, and viewing decks overlooking George Town and the Straits of Malacca. Its lush rainforest is home to diverse flora and fauna, making it ideal for nature lovers. Penang Hill also plays a role in conservation efforts and promotes eco-tourism through sustainable practices and educational programs. (pass by)
  • Penang’s Harmony Street, officially known as Jalan Masjid Kapitan Keling, exemplifies Malaysia’s multicultural harmony. Drive along this single street to see four major religious landmarks stand side by side: start with St. George’s Church (Christianity), then Goddess of Mercy Temple (Taoism), followed by Sri Mahamariamman Temple (Hinduism) and then the Kapitan Keling Mosque (Islam). This close proximity of diverse places of worship symbolizes Penang’s long-standing religious tolerance and cultural coexistence. (pass by)
  • Armenian Street
    Lithuanian artist Ernest Zacharevic is leaving his mark with beautiful wall painting of children all across historical Georgetown. The artworks are funny, fascinating, and very much open to everyone’s interpretations. Drive around Old George Town to see and snap a photo or two of magical street arts created by Ernest like “Children on Bicycle”, “Boy on Motorcycle”, “Dinosaur” and “Climbing Wall” or other artist's work like "Reaching Out", "Children on Swing" and Children and basketball".
  • Chew Jetty
    Busy, scenic destination featuring a traditional village of rustic houses on stilts over the water. Stroll on the plank walkway to see how the locals go about their daily life on the jetty, take nice pictures of harbor view, iconic Penang Ferry and Penang Bridge and buy a trinket or two or slurp on cool ice drink in this hot and charming enclave.
