Welcome everyone to my home state, Penang. This is Vincent, a true blue Penangite, born and bred here. To fully discover the many places, tourists may have to spend at least a fortnight wandering around. There’s Entopia, ESCAPE theme park for the adventurous with the world longest tube water slide, penang hill Habitat, Karuna hill resort and many more amazing places of interest that have not made the debut in this video but worth discovering. Anyway, this video is beautifully produced as in other Swiss videos. Bravo!

Hi Vincent! Thanks a lot for your comment on my Penang Video. I agree, there is a lot more to discover in Penang and what I have seen are maybe the most essential places but not all that belong to the very best :) I am glad to see that you gave me some suggestions, which I would love to take into consideration :) Gam-siah!

Young Penangite here, I'm very happy i found this nice video here are some places I recommend not shown in this video : Glass House which is located on a hill it's a great rest stop for hikers and cyclists alike Entopia is a very nice zoo/park styled place, from bugs to crabs, fish and more! Queensbay Mall, Gurney Plaza and Penag Times Square are good malls for casual shopping Komtar tower and the mall's top floor below it are very fun and i highly recommend Escape theme park is also cool and there are probably even more things i didnt mention!

You honourably mentioned the National Park, which in my view belongs to the top 10 attractions of Penang. You can take a bus from Georgetown to get there and there are many hiking paths in the park/jungle, even some long ones suitable for multi-day hikes.

@@DjemoGraphic Penang definitely has the more visible Chinese culture in Malaysia as well as Indian culture. The temples are a MUST SEE in Penang, no doubt about that. The best beaches in Malaysia are Redang Island and Perhentian Islands off the NE coast of Malaysia and really good for snorkelling and for total relaxation. I've never been to the Borneo end of Malaysia but I heard it is good so I can't compare that with Langkawi. However, Langkawi offers a few things for budget travellers like good beaches, natural beauty, limestone cliffs, Island Hopping Tours, Mangroves Tours, 3 different waterfalls and obviously the sky cab/bridge and plenty of night markets to sample some good food - you can hire a car for reasonable rate to go around the island - it is less lively than Penang though which is what I prefer (and less in terms of diverse culture). In terms of diverse culture and party life, Penang wins. In terms of natural beauty + beaches + less pollution, Langkawi wins. Penang has some natural beauty but personally think Langkawi is better in that area

Nicely sum up. Glad its all attractions instead of street food. Would be nice to add in a few Churches and Hindu temples. Do add a few hiking/walks at botanical gardens, moon gate to Penang hill hike, pantai kerachut/mukahead hike and dam to balik pulau hike. There are also quite a few activities at teluk bahang. I'll leave that for you to explore.... have a great one... 😁

I was filming at Hindu temples, but I realized later during editing the "no filming" signs, so I did not want to be offensive and instead replaced the Sri Mahamariamman temple in georgetown as #10 with the Goddess of Mercy temple. The churches I may include on another video, thanks for reminding me about it. Also the other suggestions you gave me I will take a closer look at them. Thanks a lot.

Hi.. Are there any good vegan or vegetarian (no meat no egg) options in Penang. I know Indian food has veg options, but I want to try more of Malaysian local cuisine. Plz do assist.
@DjemoGraphic5 жыл бұрын
@@littleprincesshezal8905 Vegan may be difficult, because its considered still very exotic in south east asia. But there are also chinese restaurants that serve mocked meat (mostly imitated with soy). I think you can find such stalls in food courts. Then If you check the place in my video at #6 at the beach. The restaurant I showed is vegetarian (it is though more for brunch). I think nowadays even in a foodie place like Penang vegetarian options are more likely available (especially in georgetown). Maybe if you check the dining options on tripadvisor that can be very helpful. I hope I could help you

Is it different from Sarawak Kuching cat city?
@DjemoGraphic5 жыл бұрын
Hi Brandon. I have not seen much during my 2 days trip in Sarawak in 2013, but I definitely have seen enough to say that these two cities are VERY different. Penang has a very strong chinese influence and long history; cities in peninsular Malaysia that I would say are comparable would be Melaka and Ipoh. Kuching is on Borneo and the ethnic composition of that side of Malaysia is totally different from the west. In Kuching there are a lot of Iban and other Borneo native people, which still have a lot of tribal culture. That remains very visible up to today, which is something you wont find in West Malaysia. Kuching has a small chinatown (or chinese street), which has similar houses as in Penang. But there is not much street art as you would find it in Georgetown. A city that has some similarity to Kuching is Kota Kinabalu, but there is no river.

Hi Kris. You are quite right with your comment, but this is the result of a few circumstances. I actually did film in Hindu temples. However, during video editing I realized, filming was not allowed, when I noticed the signs. This was for example the case at the Sri Mahamariamman temple in Georgetown. Because of this, I included the goddess of mercy temple instead. I did not want to be offensive towards the Hindu community, as apparently filming of the deities inside the shrine is according to my friends advice not well accepted. Very sorry about it.

@DjemoGraphic5 жыл бұрын
Hi. No, of course Penang is not only about chinese temples. I actually went to visit Indian temples e.g. to the Sri Mahamariamman temple in the little India section for filming, but unfortunately that was not allowed, which is the reason why I could not include those I visited. I quite regretted the film ban, but I did not want to be disprespectful. Upon my next visit I hope there will be any Hindu temple that I can visit that does not impose any film bans. I hope this answers your question.
