If there are many days in the arrangement of Penang, and do not want to If you run the outdoor attractions every day to the sun, it is quite good to arrange this ghost museum to blow the wind (air-conditioning).

 

OrangeCatTravel's experience

• Malaysian dishes are quite Chinese, so they are similar to Taiwan and most are acceptable.

• The restaurant usually bans food and drinks and adds extra money.

• The store's metropolitan area requires a checkout first, usually without a service charge or tax.

• If someone asks you if you need a drink at mealtime, it is extra money, not free.
