Located North West of Kuala Lumpur, the island of Penang has served as an important hub for Europe's powerful colonial empires in the past. Direct road connection with Kuala Lumpur ensures hassle free drive. The capital George Town portrays the highest amount of diversity because of its historical ties with Asia, Middle East and Europe. This thriving capital is a party hub, not only for the locals but also for international travellers. If you have partied in KL, then wait till you get to the George Town, the city which never sleeps. The Upper Penang road is the center of nightlife in Penang. The hotels with rooftop bars overlooking the bay are the most popular spots. Besides the sky bars, beachfront resto bars or lounge bars are perfect to start an evening with seafood dinner. Embark on a pub crawl and sip on some pina-colada or mojito in shacks overlooking the pier. The laidback Penang vibe is infectious, it will suck you into it and you will not feel like coming back home!
