Penang, Malaysia

Penang, Malaysia

George Town's UNESCO-listed streets layer Chinese shophouses, Indian temples and colonial British architecture within a few blocks of each other, a genuine reflection of the trading crossroads this island has been for centuries. Its hawker food scene, char kway teow and asam laksa chief among the essentials, is regularly named among the best street food anywhere in Asia. A funicular ride up Penang Hill rewards with sweeping views and noticeably cooler air, while a round of golf and serious birdlife along the coastal wetlands round out one of Malaysia's most rewarding stops.
