Malaysia, part 4- Penang City

Penang was probably our favorite part of our vacation, there was a pretty good mix of everything here: a historical district (UNESCO world heritage site), some museums, some art galleries, some beaches, and amazing and cheap food. seriously, I'm getting hungry just thinking about it.


This was one of a bunch of murals in the building below...


Again, I can't remember what this was called, but it was a clan/family lodge for one of the oldest Chinese clans in Penang, and is now partially a historical museum documenting that clan's history. The murals were amazing.


This is the famous temple at the base of Penang Hill (I think, again, terrible memory) Great vistas, and really cool temples.


We took a tour of a few old mansions in Penang, here's Jenny on the balcony of one of 'em.
