Get right on top of Penang’s highest point, 821 metres above sea level, for an unparalleled view of Penang and its surroundings. From the top of Penang Hill (otherwise known as Bukit Bendera), a sprawling view of the island greets you, as far as the eyes can see, with Penang Bridge in the distance and ships in the harbour. On a clear, sunny day, you can even see right through to the other end of Penang Bridge, where it meets Peninsular Malaysia. It’s the best way to get a sweeping view of Penang. If you don’t feel like hiking all the way to the top, the dedicated funicular train service will take you there in less than 30 minutes.

The home of an influential Chinese industrialist in the early 1890s, the award-winning Cheong Fatt Tze Mansion represents the best of 18th and 19th-century Chinese architecture. Relying heavily on feng shui design, a team of master craftsmen from China took more than seven years to build the mansion, including its five granite courtyards, 38 rooms, seven staircases and 22 stained glass windows. Locals call it the Blue Mansion and it remains one of only three traditional Chinese mansions outside of China. In 1989, it was restored and converted into a 16-room boutique heritage hotel/museum combo best known for its indigo blue façade.

Fort Cornwallis is one of Penang’s most well known landmarks. Within its ten-foot-high walls (which are laid out in the shape of a star), you can see a 17th century chapel, some prison cells, ammunition storage area, and more. There are even some pretty cool old bronze cannons, including a Dutch one which superstitious locals believe has a positive effect on women’s fertility. Named after Charles Cornwallis, the former Governor General of India, it was originally built entirely out of wood, but refurbishment over the years has led to its current concrete facade.

Built by the British army on top of Bukit Maung in the 20th century, the Penang War Museum is historically significant for its past. Used as a Japanese army base during WWII, tales of prisoners of war being tortured for information colour its walls. As a result, the hill itself has earned a reputation among locals as being haunted – in fact, they shy away from climbing the hill after dark. Despite its sordid past, when it was turned into a museum (nearly three decades later), restoration works maintained its network of underground tunnels and ventilation shafts, making for a pretty cool complex to explore.

Penang’s Khoo Khongsi is a Chinese clanhouse for individuals with the surname Khoo. A clanhouse acts as a representation of a specific family’s social and spiritual commitments between extended relations, ancestors and the outside community. Also known as Dragon Mountain Hall, it represents good luck and wealth, with stone carvings that adorn the entrance hall and pavilions. Murals portraying birthdays, weddings and, most memorably, the 36 divine guardians sprinkle the interior. Overhead, massive paper lamps cast the clanhouse in an orange glow and stunning ceramic sculptures of immortals, carp fish and dragons dance across the roof ridges.

Jalan Batu Feringghi comes alive every night as vendors set up stalls along this stretch offering everything from fake designer bags and inexpensive pirated DVDs, to handmade local souvenirs and local artwork. Best of all, you can still bargain for the best prices: one word of advice, if you like something, do not buy it first – walk along the strip, check out other stalls to see if there might be the same item offered at a better deal. If not, head back to the original stall and bargain for the best rate (which is usually half the price originally quoted).

Just a 15-minute drive from the centre of Georgetown, Batu Ferringhi’s beach is one of Penang Island’s most stunning bodies of water – think powder white sands spilling out onto turquoise blue waters, that stretch all the way up the northern peninsular. The best way to enjoy this beautiful strip of sand is to bring a beach blanket and soak in the sun’s rays, but if you are not the type to sunbathe we recommend hitting up one of the water sport operators that are set up along the beach to rent a kayak, jet ski or banana boat to have some splashing good fun.

The Made in Penang Interactive Museum really helps shake off pre-existing ideas of boring, outdated museums, instead offering visitors a fun, exciting way to view artwork with exhibits that have clever 3D imagery features. For example, a portrait of the Penang Snake Temple, with a large 3D snake slithering out from the framework. A museum where getting involved is truly part of the fun, pictures range from historical images such as battleships being blown up by cannons, to elevators with iconic horror movie characters inside. The trick is that artists have used different colours, textured contours and some props to create each unique photo. Open: 09:00–18:00 Address: No.3, Pengkalan Weld

The few hours spent at Escape Adventureland Penang are likely to rank as some of the most thrilling and emotionally-charged moments of your life. After all, hurtling speedily through the open air, dozens of feet off the ground, is pretty memorable. A park specialising in zip-lining (or, as Australians call it, flying foxes), there are other fun activities here including a free fall from a 20m jump platform, an inner-tube slide and tree rope swing.
