Once a British port on the Straits of Malacca, Penang is now a thriving city with a blend of history and modernity, and enjoys the reputation of Malaysia's gourmet capital. Visit George Town, which is listed as a world cultural heritage, and take a day trip to visit the buildings of the British colonial period and see the vivid graffiti on the streets. You can also visit the Penang Overseas Chinese Museum, which was converted from the magnificent villas of the Straits Chinese, to experience the life of the local Peranakans, or take a tricycle to roam the city. When you come to Penang, don’t miss the opportunity to eat delicacies. Laksa and Char Kway Teow are must-eat delicacies.
