Honeymoon Day 12-22<\/strong><\/p>\n Oh, we have so much to say about Penang! For us, Penang, Malaysia is a new favorite. Not because “there is so much to see and do here!”, or because it’s a “must visit in 2018”. What appealed to us the most was the diverse culture, laid-back atmosphere, friendly locals, and AMAZING<\/em> food. Seriously, Penang, Malaysia is a culinary paradise thanks, in part, to its diverse cultural heritage.<\/p>\n And to think we nearly missed out<\/em> on Penang!<\/p>\n I honestly wasn’t that hyped for Penang when we started our trip. I brought up the idea of a return visit to Kuala Lumpur and Melaka as an alternative to Penang. Maybe it was the idea of another long bus ride added to an already long transit<\/a> that put me off on Penang. Whatever the reason, I wasn’t really excited for the trip north.<\/p>\n Thankfully, I lost the argument and we gave the city a chance!<\/p>\n We have written a lot about our love for Malaysia,<\/strong><\/p>\n But even after double-digit trips to Malaysia, there are still more amazing places to see.<\/p>\n So, even though we fell in love with Penang there are still a number of downsides to the city.<\/p>\n Major tourist attractions.<\/strong><\/p>\n George Town calls tourists for its history, architecture, and food. With that said, there aren’t really any huge attractions that would pull in tourists. The highlights of our trip included the George Town WonderFood Museum and the Cheong Fat Tze Blue Mansion. Neither of which compare to Disneyland on a level of awesome.<\/p>\n\n
