Here’s a bite-sized travel dia

Here’s a bite-sized travel diary for a George Town & Tanjung Bungah getaway 🍰🏖️ Iconic street art? Check. Food hunting? Double check. Sweet hotel views from M Social Penang? Absolutely.

Top Spots to Visit:
1. Armenian Street (Lbh Armenian, George Town, 10450) – Wander through Penang’s most Instagrammable street! Street murals, quirky cafes, tons of photo ops. Open all day, so go early to beat the crowds and heat.
2. DAISO at Gurney Paragon Mall (Gurney Dr, George Town) – Budget-friendly shopping spree for cute finds and daily treasures.
3. Train Depot Saturday Market (Hin Bus Depot, 31A, Jalan Gurdwara) – Hit up local artisan stalls for fashion, snacks, and artsy vibes. Saturday only!
4. Library Chill – Find a local library near George Town for a quick cool-down and free WiFi (super handy between sightseeing stops).
5. Chendol Uncle Street Desserts – Sweet fixes are a must. Grab classic chendol or traditional desserts on Lebuh Keng Kwee.

Where to Stay:
M Social Resort Penang (523, Jalan Tanjung Bungah, Tanjung Tokong) – Newly built, beachfront, modern and sparkling clean. Breakfast rocks and staff are super friendly. AI assistant in-room is a fun bonus, and the views are legit stunning. Tip: If you need help with luggage or find ventilation an issue, let the front desk know!

Extra Tips:
– Getting around: Buses and Grab are easy, especially with stops near the hotel and shopping spots.
– Eat: Try local hawker stores along the beach or explore central George Town for authentic Penang bread, laksa, and more. M Social’s breakfast is not to be missed.
– Money: Most spots accept cash and mobile pay. Some local markets are cash-only—grab extra ringgit.
– Weather: Pack for sunshine! Afternoons get hot, so plan outdoor walks in the morning/evening.
