In Jetty Bas Terminal, taking the bus to the tourist distribution center under the mountain, directly to the window to buy tickets and take the cable car up the mountain is the most convenient way to travel, helping me save a lot of climbing time. There are ice cream sales on the mountain, as well as restaurants, amusement parks and many observation decks. Standing on the top of the mountain, you can enjoy the charm of the natural scenery, overlooking the Georgetown port terminal, Penang Bridge and city construction. Banner Mountain (Malay Bukit Bendera; Penang Chinese call it Banner Mountain; English Penang Hill means Penang Mountain) is located in the north-central Penang, the main peak is 821 meters above sea level. During British rule, senior officials lived here, and soldiers under the mountain used the flag to convey an important message, calling the mountain The flag-raising mountain, which is the origin of the name of the flag mountain. It is a common way to travel down the mountain by cable car. The first cable car was officially launched in 1923 until 1977. The new cable car was introduced from Switzerland from 1977 to 2010. The new cable car, which is now in use, was officially launched in May 2011, with speeds of up to 10 km per hour and up to the top of the mountain in four minutes. In September 2021, Penang, Malaysia, was listed as a UNESCO Biopark Reserve, becoming the third region in the country to receive this award.

We went during non peak hours and had the entire place to ourselves. We were able to take our time to marvel at the carvings and paintings. Downstairs was a mini museum about the history of the building and the Khoo clan.

Sri Mahamali Amman Hindu Temple Sri Maha Mariamman Temple is a Hindu temple located on Queen Street LEBUH QUEEN. I stayed at the Queen City Hotel and was directly opposite the temple. Hindu Temple I pray every morning, the sound is loud, and I can hear it in the nearby neighborhood. This is God's arrangement, so I went to the temple. The temple gate is carved with colorful Hindu gods, characters, and statues, which can be seen from a distance. Take off your shoes and walk barefoot in to show your respect for God. The temple is filled with worshippers, columns, buildings with god birds, god dogs, gods, cows and sheep statues on the corridors, and various gods and holy beasts. The center is dedicated to the Indian god, and believers from all over the world come here to pray for God's protection and blessing, and the incense is strong.

This is a Chinese-style Taoist view of the 18th century, established by the first Cantonese and Fujian people who migrated to Penang Island, named Guangfu Palace. Many pilgrims came to this place to burn incense and worship the goddess, praying for good luck and smooth sailing, so it is called Goddess of Mercy Temple, located at the southernmost end of Lebun China, Jln Masjid Kapitan Keling and Lorong Stewart streets. There is a stone lion gate in front of Guangfu Palace, there is an incense stove in the square, the oversized standing incense, and the incense is constantly burning. Many pigeons are moving freely here, some are flying, some are on the roof, and some are cleaning their feathers in the pool. The attraction has a long history and is worth a visit.

I didn't expect to meet Mr. Sun Yat-sen's Penang Base Memorial Hall in Penang, in a foreign country, and recorded Mr. Zhongshan's experience of exile here. It is very meaningful and worth visiting!

From the Queens City Hotel, you can go to the Masjid Kapitan Keling Jining Jiabidan Huicha Church. The main entrance faces Jalan Masjid Kapitan Keling, and the believers enter and exit here. There is also a side door in Jalan Buckingham, usually the door is locked, and the supplies are only opened when transported through this door. The oldest and largest Muslim church in Penang, built in 1800, was originally a square with a promenade and a ridge roof. In 1926, architects donated and courted by Muslims and Hindus dressed it in Moorish architecture. In terms of the building itself, the area is large and the momentum is magnificent.
