Situated on the west coast of Peninsular Malaysia, Penang state comprises Penang Island and a narrow strip of land on the mainland coast known as Seberang Prai, which includes the town of Butterworth and the Free Trade Zone.
Architecture is fascinating giving a glimpse of the Island's past. Many colourful Chinese Peranakan and old colonial-style buildings are nestled in amongst the highrises.
Penang offers something for everyone, from the historical buff and nature park enthusiast to those just wanting to relax on a sun-soaked beach. |
