A trip to The Top Penang, is definitely a must for those visiting Penang… Currently the offer price is RM75 per adult or RM55 per child for the 3 main attractions – aquarium, Jurassic and skywalk… Or you can get full tickets at RM108 per adult or RM88 per child for all 16 attractions for the whole day…
The recommended way to see everything that The Top Penang offers in Komtar is to get a Fun Pass which allows multiple entries to every attraction except the Augmented Reality Virtual, The Gravityz, Formula One & TOP Capsule. It costs RM78 for MyKad Malaysian holders and RM99 for all other adults, and RM48 for Malaysian children/RM58 for foreign children.
The main attraction is on Level 68 where one gets to experience the open-air Rainbow Walk and look down via the glass to 249 metres above ground. So when compared to the sky towers listed above admittedly the Top Komtar isn’t that high but this view still left me breathless.

Reasons to visit Cheong Fatt Tze – The Blue Mansion Penang: fantastic location; a culturally significant stay in a beautifully maintained museum with luxurious amenities and modern-day comforts; lap pool and garden; Indigo restaurant.
The Blue Mansion is now reopened, welcoming Penangites to stay and dine.
We stayed in the largest room category, the Han Suites, which is extra spacious and ideal for our family of four. All their rooms carry names with significance to Cheong Fatt Tze; for instance, our suite was called Mandarin, in honour of Cheong Fatt Tze who was recognised as the last Mandarin of the Highest Order by Empress Dowager. The grand chambers is appointed with a comfortable king-sized bed, as well as a separate sitting room with a day bed (which converts into a bed for the kids at night) and a dining table. We loved the modern bathroom, equipped with a shower and a gorgeous clawfoot bathtub. You will also find various other contemporary comforts and amenities such as a coffee machine, complimentary mini-bar, air-conditioning and complimentary WiFi for your comfort. The traditional sarong provided is a nice touch, where guests are invited to relax like a local. Every evening, local kuih is delivered to your room as part of their turndown service.
We highly recommend you guys to experience what we had at Suffolk House Restaurant.
The next time you are looking to indulge in fine dining around Penang, take time to enjoy the Suffolk House Restaurant experience. Under the management of YKH Group of Restaurants, the dining place offers the serenity of the 200-year old Suffolk House while you satisfy your palate.

As for us – we’ll definitely recommend all three stalls mentioned above!
♥Verdict: Definitely a place that you should put into your Penang food hunting list!
Located at Lebuh Cecil these Penang Street Food are few of the best that highly recommended, with the champion won for the Jawa Mee competition, this stall is one of the shinning stars that shouldn't be missed. As for the Laksa, the taste and the flavor is very appetizing and packed with ingredients, these are the great Street Food of Penang.
Unless you want to be fleeced by boat operators, a 90-minute uphill hike is the only other way to get to Pantai Kerachut or better known to tourists as Turtle Beach. You must start at Penang National Park, which is already at the extreme north-west edge of the island. Take a Grab, or the Rapid Penang bus 101 to the end of the line, which will be the park.
I never know Penang has its own National Park and i'm glad that i have the opportunities to visit this new place. Still remember the news earlier about the naked ...
But as we went further into the jungle the trail became a bit trickier. The tracks were steep and slippery with lots of roots and tree trunks. And most of the journey, ...
Despite it not being aimed at my demographic, I really enjoyed TeddyVille. It’s whimsical, fun and charming, and I couldn’t help but get swept along by the absurdity. If you aren’t staying in Batu Ferringhi, then it’d be a bit out of the way – but look into the eyes of the bears and tell them they’re not worth it!
Overall, it is a nice museum to visit and you can find out more about Penang together with the cute little bears.
Clan Jetty in Penang is symbol of rich culture and heritage. It is situated along the eastern waterfront of George Town. Originally it was built as landing jetties by Chinese Hokkein immigrants in the 19th century. Each of these jetties is associated with different clans that can easily be identified by their family surnames. At its peak, there were over 20 clan jetties in the area; seven of which are standing to this day and are currently protected by the UNESCO listing since 2008.

After the visit to Hean Boo Thean Floating Temple, we made our way to Lee Jetty and Tan Jetty in search of dinner. The beckoning lights of these Chinese Clan Jetties during Chinese New Year were very inviting. We decided to call it a night after dinner. The visit to the famous Chew Jetty and…
One of Penang’s famous attractions, Entopia Butterfly Farm has announced its closure as of 1st June 2021.
Entopia is the new name for the Penang Butterfly Farm, and it has a bit more than just butterflies and moths these days. It’s split into an ‘outdoor’ section, Natureland, and an indoor learning zone called Cocoon. Natureland starts with a ‘cave’ with snakes, scorpions, and spiders, which is a bold move and may have driven off a few visitors! I didn’t realise at the time, but it seems you’re allowed to handle the scorpions if you’re a masochist.
One of the things to do when you travel to Penang is to visit Entopia by Penang Butterfly Farm! Entopia by Penang Butterfly Farm is a sanctuary for butterflies and insects. It is located at Teluk Bahang, which is approximately 45-minute drive away from George Town, Penang. So come visit Entopia when you travel to Penang!
As many of you know, especially Penangites, this Art Lane is not something new, even myself has walk passed here countless time, but this Art Lane definitely deserve a spot here in my blog as a place to visit when you are in Penang, plus, it is just a few minutes walk away from some famous cafes and other street arts.

The Habitat is one of the best eco-tourism attractions in Penang. It features one of the most immersive and authentic nature experiences that take you through a pre-historic rainforest on Penang Hill that’s over 130-million years old. In comparison, the Amazon Rainforest is only 55-million years old. This basically means this forest has one of the most diverse tropical ecosystems in the world. And at The Habitat, you get to experience it in leisure.
The Habitat on Penang Hill is the perfect place to visit for the most complete, exciting and educational Malaysian rainforest experience…
Aside from the popular activities such as The Canopy Walk or Sunset Walk in The Habitat, the latest attraction that you must try out is "The Flight of the Colugo" that let you zip through the amazing rainforest canopy at the Penang Hill. We tried it and absolutely had a fun time during the entire process. Not only we get to have a different perspective of Penang hill, we also learn a bit more on the nature of Penang hill.
The Peranakan or Baba Nyonya culture is a fascinating culture that is unique to Malaysia, Singapore and Indonesia.
