Why the Kek Lok Si Pagoda is a Penang Must-See

#penangspots

Standing tall with a mix of Chinese, Thai, and Burmese design influences, the Kek Lok Si Pagoda is one of Penang’s most iconic sights. The colours, carvings, and symmetry make it a masterpiece for the eyes.

Why I recommend it: This is a must-see for architecture and history lovers. Not only does it offer panoramic views of Penang from the top, but it’s also a cultural blend you won’t find anywhere else in Malaysia.
