PENANG
ISLAND
Penang
“The Pearl Of the Orient” is the most
culturally diverse East Asia holiday destination of
choice today.
The 285-square-km
island of Penang, off Peninsula Malaysia's north-western
coast, is the oldest British settlement in Malaysia
and one of the country's premier resort areas.
It was
in the 16th century that the Portuguese first discovered
the island of Penang. They named it Pulo Pinaom.
In
the 17th century, the island became a popular hideout
for pirates who initiated raids on passing ships
from her hidden harbours.
Though
Penang today is a modern metropolis, the island still
reeks pungently of yesteryears through the narrow
streets and gloomy corridors of Colonial-style structures
and Chinese kongsi quarters.
What
makes Penang Island really tick is the vibrant and
intriguing city of Georgetown with a population
of 400,000, on the island's north-eastern coast.
This city has more Chinese flavour than either Singapore
or Hong Kong, and in its older neighbourhoods you
could be forgiven for thinking that the clock stopped
at least 50 years ago.
