Budget-Friendly Beauty in Penang

#summerbudgettrip Traveling on a budget doesn’t mean missing out on beauty and culture. Kek Lok Si Temple offered both without costing a cent! The temple’s colors and design stood out against the lush green hillside, and every corner had something interesting to see. There’s something magical about wandering through a place like this without a strict itinerary. I sat near the lotus pond for a while, just enjoying the view and calmness. This experience reminded me that meaningful travel moments often come from simple, peaceful places—and they’re even better when they’re free!
