🌿《Penang Free Travel Diary｜Pulling a cart through the streets, roaming around old houses, relaxing in the swimming pool, and slowly savoring Michelin》

Penang really has its own rhythm. It is not a city with shiny skyscrapers, but a place with more and more stories and surprises around corners. During this free trip, I felt like I fell into an architectural maze, from old to new, from Chinese to Western, my eyes could not stop👀

🏘 Georgetown Old Street: Every step is like turning a page

In Penang, architecture itself is a language.

Walking into the streets of Georgetown, you will see:
• ⭐️ British colonial style white wall arcade buildings
The mottled walls, colorful window frames and carved wooden doors are super tasteful
• ⭐️ Chinese arcade + five-foot-base
The black and white tiles extend all the way, and the light and shadow pass through the arcade, which is so beautiful that it looks like shooting a MV
• ⭐️ The street corner where mosques and churches are side by side
Multiculturalism is not inconsistent here, but harmonious to the point of surprise

Even the rows of old houses have their own souls. Many have been converted into cultural and creative shops, cafes or homestays, which are retro and vibrant.

🛺 Pulling a cart through the streets is like traveling through time and space

This time I took a trishaw and asked a local man to take me around the old neighborhood~
While walking, I listened to him telling stories about Penang in the past, and watched the century-old wooden windows on the windowsill and the red lanterns under the eaves swaying. It really felt like a slow time travel✨
