Top Spots to Visit: 1. Armenian Street (Lbh Armenian, George Town, 10450) – Wander through Penang’s most Instagrammable street! Street murals, quirky cafes, tons of photo ops.

Train Depot Saturday Market (Hin Bus Depot, 31A, Jalan Gurdwara) – Hit up local artisan stalls for fashion, snacks, and artsy vibes. Saturday only! 4. Library Chill – Find a local library near George Town for a quick cool-down and free WiFi (super handy between sightseeing stops). 5. Chendol Uncle Street Desserts – Sweet fixes are a must. Grab classic chendol or traditional desserts on Lebuh Keng Kwee. Where to Stay: M Social Resort Penang (523, Jalan Tanjung Bungah, Tanjung Tokong) – Newly built, beachfront, modern and sparkling clean. Breakfast rocks and staff are super friendly. AI assistant in-room is a fun bonus, and the views are legit stunning. Tip: If you need help with luggage or find ventilation an issue, let the front desk know! Extra Tips: – Getting around: Buses and Grab are easy, especially with stops near the hotel and shopping spots. – Eat: Try local hawker stores along the beach or explore central George Town for authentic Penang bread, laksa, and more.

Penang, this charming Malaysian island, is rich in culture and beauty. Batu Ferringhi was my first destination on this trip. Its beaches are picture-perfect, with fine sand and crystal-clear waters that will leave you wanting more. Enjoying fresh seafood right by the shore is a true delight. Next, I visited Jalan Pasar Baru, renowned for its authentic street food, especially its delicious and mouth-watering rice noodles and fried kway teow. The street art in Jalan Pasar Baru is also captivating, with murals dotting the landscape and adding a touch of color. Every corner of Penang exudes its own unique charm, waiting to be discovered!
