Langkawi-Penang Trip 5.0

this would officially be my last blog post of this trip! big thanks to myself for being so passionate to blog all these *i shall given a face palm LOL*

and also my readers! thanks for reading this crap blog all these while even i don't blog a lot.

this was the last day of the entire trip! Cindy would be leaving to Kuala Lumpur around 5p.m. in the noon. and we would be leaving to Kuching around 6a.m. the next early morning.

so our first station is the largest Buddhist temple in South-east Asia, KEK LOK SI.

Also, we went there by bus which took us around 1 hour from Komtar Bus Station.

view of the pagoda from far.

a nearer view.

the bus would stop in front of a shop lot and you're required to walk. under scorching sun. =.=

it took us almost 10 minutes to reach the entrance of the temple, and then you would still need to climb some staircases to reach the pagoda.

tortoises in the pond! have already been to this temple at my young age yet i could still recall the memories i had here.

making some wishes together with Bryan!

there's cabinet placed with colorful ribbons inside which 1 ribbon costs RM1 with different words on them like wealth, peace, health, good fortune, love and so on.
pay RM1 and then write your name on the ribbon, hang on this colorful wishing tree =)

fooling around in the inclined train heading to the pagoda.

to reach the pagoda at the hilltop, you either climb uncountable steps of stairs or use this inclined train like us! RM5 per person. how could people bear with the heat and climb the super long stairs? =.= we of course use the inclined train LOL.

railway of the train. kinda steep i could say.

an absolute SUNNY day. my skin was nearly burning off that time =.=

gigantic Buddha statue. really huge! no lie.

after walking under the Sun for the whole morning, it's time to leave for the next station and welcome some cool breezes.
BUKIT BENDERA a.k.a. PENANG HILL
walk to another bus station nearby which linked to Penang Hill. From that bus station to Penang Hill, it took us only 10 minutes. these two tourist destinations are really near, just a stone's throw away.

we're here babyyyyyyy!

Entrance fee for students (with student card) : RM4
Entrance fee for adults : RM8

Penang Hill's inclined train.

after buying the entrance ticket, you could reach the top by this inclined train. super cooling air-conditioner inside the train. could probably feel the ears pressure as soon as you reach the top. the temperature was much lower too.

happy girls =D

overlooking the whole Penang from the top of Penang Hill. B.R.E.A.T.H.T.A.K.I.N.G

*NO CAPTION*

LOOK at the signboard and you'd know what' the reason we came here hehe.

after taking tonnes and tonnes of photos, we finally proceeded to the paths and found out that there's actually an Owl Museum right beside the restaurant. Don't worry, you wouldn't find real owl inside or any bloody disgusting owl specimen eewww! they displayed merely owl items from soft toys, frames, bookmarks, vases, pictures, hand-carved wood owl, silicon owl, China clay owl and other whatsoever owl items.

Entrance Fee for students : RM5
For the owl museum part, let the photos do the talking.

at the owl museum entrance!

skip this photo. it's about all about my expressions. LOL

in love with this kind of wall texture and the frames. vintage. next twime i want my house to look like this too HAHA

one last piece of photo for y'all before leaving this wonderful place.

using the same routes as we came to go back to town. i didn't know why but it just took longer. around 1.20 hours.
so where came our last purpose of visiting Penang, which was to discover Penang Mural!
download an application called PenangMural from appstore. super useful application which will bring you to all these murals.
Since we're in a rush of time, we didn't manage to look for all the murals but only two. * sigh*

'brilliant' stranger took this photo. where're the little boy went =.= 

the most famous mural! (i assume)

new street arts. made by steel. you could see it along Love Lane or somewhere around.

we rushed back to the hotel and sent Cindy off there. buhh-byeeee

it's FOOD HUNTING time babehhh! we took the most comfortable shower for this whole life first before going out (okay i know i am exaggerating LOL) 'cause it's a real sunny day.
