Travel Destinations of Penang Island (Malaysia).
"Malaysia, truly Asian" is the national slogan. On the mainland you'll find the capital Kuala Lumpur (with Twin Towers), Melakka (with Dutch history) and famous tea fields (like the Cameron Highlands). On the East there is Sarawak (the Northern part of Borneo) where you can find exotic monkeys and apes (orang-utang = "person of the forest"). Malaysia is mostly a Muslim country with a large Chinese minority.

Georgetown is the capital of Penang Island and known for historical buildings, Chinese Shophouses, Mosques, art and good food.
