Pearl of the Orient

by jetwind - last update: Nov 1, 2005

Great for first timers

This is a fabulous island for first time visitors to Malaysia. It has a happy mix of Asian and Western infulences that will make a non adventurist feel at home.
Located just 3 kilometres off the west coast of Penisula Malaysia and easily accesible by air from Kuala Lumpur; Penang is Malaysia's best known and most popular beach resort.
Many British expats have set up home here and its easy to see why, with it's stunning beaches, great shopping and love of cuisine Penang is an ideal retreat for brits tired of freezing weather condiditions and spirialing fuel costs.
