Malaysia’s second-largest and most historic city is Georgetown on Penang Island, located on the busy shipping lane the Strait of Malacca. Georgetown is a quaint and culturally diverse former colonial city with historic architecture, delicious street food, and picturesque street art.
Both a modern and traditional trading hub, Penang Island has long been home to a diverse population of Malay, Chinese, and Indian communities. These communities all have neighborhoods in the city including a Chinatown and a ‘Little India’. Additionally, the Island boasts hiking trails, a cable car, and some beaches of its own. This UNESCO Heritage Site can’t be missed and many film productions continue to use its scenery as a backdrop.
For a purer, more rural tropical ambiance, the Langkawi island archipelago is just a short boat or plane ride away from either Penang or Kuala Lumpur. Topping many lists of the world’s best dive sites, Langkawi is a highly prized for water sports and beach tourism. Pristine stretches of sand, waterfalls, reefs, and clear blue ocean waters are all on offer among this idyllic island chain.
