A Photo Essay Based on My Travel Log
It has been few months ago since I came back from my backpack trip to Penang Island or also known as Pearl of orient. Exactly like its given name, Penang is like a pearl which has its own attraction. It’s attraction including old building, culinary experiences, it’s habitants, values, tradition and so on are still remain the same even though it started as a small port which then has become second largest city in Malaysia.
Penang is my second must visit city in Malaysia after Malacca. And I did visit this city! In this photo essay I will try to share my experiences through some images which I never uploaded to public before, although one or two was used on my previous photo exhibition with same title.
In this photo essay I would focus on three Penang’s attraction “its habitants, heritage and foods”. Enjoy! Please drop any comment Please Visit (by click) Different Side of Penang Cheers Felix Kusmanto
