Georgetown Penang 2-day Itinerary.

George Town, Penang – where epic street food, heritage architecture, and that laid-back city vibe all merge into one photogenic package.
This city is UNESCO-listed so everywhere you walk feels like you’re living inside a history book (but with much, much better food).

Essential Tips:
- Slow Down! George Town is for wandering: get lost in tiny alleys, snap pics of colorful murals, and pop into random kopitiams for kopi o or kaya toast.
- Getting Around: Grab a map or use a ride-hailing app. Walking is honestly best in the heritage core.
- Foodie Pro Move: Eat food (char kuey teow, nasi lemak, laksa) at local restaurants for authentic flavors and big value.

Don’t rush - let George Town’s rhythm set your pace!

Hainan Thean Hou Temple: Don’t miss this gem! The dazzling colors and intricate facade are a photographer’s dream, and it’s a peaceful spot to soak in the blend of Chinese heritage and Penang’s multicultural spirit. Go early or late for fewer crowds and softer lighting for photos.
