Penang
Navigate your way through traditional medicine shops, legendary kway teow purveyors, and Peranakan-style estates, and you’ll only begin to scratch the surface of this cosy, compact city. The Georgetown area is a perennial favourite with its nooks and crannies hiding culinary and cultural gems, but try stretching out a little further and find that the rest of Penang gleams with promises of coastal adventures and smiling faces.
