Penang is a UNESCO World Heritage city known as the "Pearl of the Orient." It's famous for George Town's colorful mural-covered lanes, exotic architecture blending British, Chinese, and Indian influences, and what many consider the best street food scene in Malaysia. Touring the old streets slowly by bicycle or trishaw is the quintessential Penang experience.
