A visit to Penang ^0^

A VISIT TO PENANG🌉✨

Last weekend,my family and I went to Penang. It was a long journey and so we started off at 3.00 p.m. and drove along busy roads. On the way, we passed rubber plantations and tin mines. I was interested in the scenery as we study about these industries in our Geography lessons in school. There was a heavy traffic and we were stucked for about 7 hours on the road.Finally, we crossed over to Penang by ferry and reached our seaside hotel at Batu Ferringhi. I loved the blue sea with its gentle waves sparkling in the sun. The coconut palms swayed gracefully in the breeze as though to welcome us.

Apparently,my mother booked the hotel for only a night, but somehow we thought two days is not enough to discover the beauty of Penang so she extended for another one night. As soon as we arrived, we went to the famous Original Kayu Nasi Kandar in Penang. It was already 11.00 p.m. but people were still lining up for food! The food was scrumptious!  It's not like the ordinary Nasi Kandar I have tasted and I think it's worth the 20 minutes queue. Here's some of the places we visited in Penang;

• Dark Mansion Penang

It is the first and only 3D glow in the dark museum in Malaysia.The entrance fee per person is RM25 and the place is very cool and colourful!

•  Art Street Penang

Other than the bridge and the food, Penang is also known for its beautiful street arts. Thanks to the awesome efforts of Lithuanian artist, Ernest Zacharevic, Penang Street Art artist, Penang is full with wonderful street arts.The artworks are funny, fascinating, and very much open to everyone’s interpretations. Along walking at Georgetown, the artworks can be found almost every path we go. Everyone of us had our phones inside our hand to get ready for some cool shots! 📱💥📷

•      Queensbay  Mall!👜👝👠

Queensbay Mall, one of the finest shopping malls in Penang Island, is located in the heart of Bayan Lepas. The mall features 5 retail levels of international and home-grown brands including fashion, lifestyle, dining, entertainment, sports, electronics, home furnishing and department store. We had our dinner there that night. The mall is enormously HUGE! even the parking lot has 7 floors!😱

• Hard Rock Cafe Penang🎸

We walk through the shops and bought myself a t-shirt. It's really hard to choose which one because all of the designs are very very very nice!😍 Then, we had our lunch at Hard Rock Cafe. The cafe is very stylish and sophisticated. There's a stage with drums, multiple screens and even a Triumph Bonneville Motorcycle! I love the workers there. Very friendly. I ordered fish and chips for lunch and it was scrumptios! perfecto! Mama and papa knew the price was a little expensive, but for us, they are willing to bend over backwards just to make us  happy.

It's very nice!

After that, we head towards home. Unfortunantely, the traffic was heavier than our route going to Penang. The situation becomes worse when it rained cats and dogs. We went off at around 4.00 p.m. and arrived home at 11.00 p.m. . Everyone was very exhausted, but indeed we had a wonderfull time together :)
