What People Are Saying About George Town

The place where the cable car is raised in Qishan is crowded, and you can only go to TOP to view the scenery. There are many projects for Everbright to play. Adults only need to go up to the top floor, and children can play below. If there is a professional 📷, it would be great to take a beautiful scenery photo.

Rainbow Skywalk, Penang Attractions

Worth the visit! It can get a little nerve wrecking for someone who’s afraid of heights, but the views are incredible if you’re there for sunset, highly recommended.

Penang Street Art

avatar
Shelsy
we’ve arrived in penang after another train journey and have strolled around georgetown all evening. you can spotted a lot of street art along the road. i really like it when i visited 10 years ago and it’s a mix of colonial building, vibrant street art, varied food influences is a winner for me

It was a trip to Northeast Penang Island with family and we visited Wonder Food Museum. It was very beautiful and we really enjoyed it.

Ghost Museum Penang

The ghost museum laughed and went in and cried. You can try it if you are bold. It is very realistic. Although there is no NPC out to be scary, the scene is still quite scary. Children may be afraid. Coward adults can challenge themselves.

The heart of Penang. There are many things to see and do. Shopping malls, souvenior shops, museums! And hop on the free CAT bus that takes you around Georgetown!

Penang Little India

Staying at Lebuh Queen (Queen Street), Little India is nearby. Little India is an Indian shopping and dining district, mainly concentrated in Lebun Pasar and Lebun King, which are all Indian shops. I started from Super OYO 998 Queen City, walked through several blocks, and went to Lebun Penang. Many street shops sell men's and women's clothing, shoes and hats, luggage, department stores, flowers, catering and other commercial services. Although I did not enter the store, I walked through several streets and found that many shops would play music 🎵 to attract customers, which was full of Indian style.
