Cheap Travel Bliss in Penang

#cheaptravel If you're looking for a cheap travel destination in Malaysia, Kek Lok Si Temple in Penang should be on your list. It’s one of Southeast Asia's largest temples, and best of all, most of the areas are free to explore. I only paid a small fee to take the funicular lift up to the top, which was worth every cent for the view and experience. I spent a good few hours walking around the temple grounds, admiring the detailed structures and peaceful gardens. It felt like a refreshing break from the usual city noise. For the budget I had, this stop delivered more than I expected. Penang proves you don’t need to spend much to enjoy culture and serenity.
