Georgetown





After a long night bus from KL we arrived on the island of Penang and made our way to the city of Georgetown, a breath of fresh air with charming streets and a laid back vibe. Jacks was almost back to full strength so we managed to explore quite a bit on foot. There was plenty to see with masses of temples, mosques and churches and the never ending clatter of people going about their business.

The variety and quality of food on offer was awesome but for us the highlight was the Temple of Khoo Khongsi. After unintentionally bowing because of a cleverly placed low wall in the doorway you enter a truly ornate and beautiful place, with more to see than you would ever really want to see.
