PENANG

Known as the ‘Pearl of the Orient’, Penang offers a fascinating amalgamation of East and West. One of the most-visited destinations in Malaysia, Penang offers a touch of modernity while remaining engulfed in its unique old-world charm. Penang is perhaps best known as the ‘food capital’ of Malaysia, home of the famous nasi kandar and Penang char kuey teow, thanks to its melting pot of cultural diversity. George Town is also known for its well-preserved old British colonial buildings, which led to it being accorded as one of UNESCO’s World Heritage Sites in Peninsular Malaysia, alongside Malacca City and Lenggong Valley, Perak.
