🇲🇾 Sun Wui Wui Koon in Penang

#chinatravel It was a pleasant surprise to stumble upon this bundling that’s tucked between rows of pre-war shophouses and modern office buildings along Bishop Street in Penang. The staff were friendly and to invite me in when I was standing outside wondering what’s this building about. It looks like a temple but it’s actually an association founded by immigrants from Sun Wui district in the Guangdong province. There are many interesting displays that present the life back then.

Batu Ferringhi Beach

Penang, this charming Malaysian island, is rich in culture and beauty. Batu Ferringhi was my first destination on this trip. Its beaches are picture-perfect, with fine sand and crystal-clear waters that will leave you wanting more. Enjoying fresh seafood right by the shore is a true delight. Next, I visited Jalan Pasar Baru, renowned for its authentic street food, especially its delicious and mouth-watering rice noodles and fried kway teow. The street art in Jalan Pasar Baru is also captivating, with murals dotting the landscape and adding a touch of color. Every corner of Penang exudes its own unique charm, waiting to be discovered!
