Beyond its beaches and culturally rich heritage streets, Penang is also known for its cool hill retreat.

A funicular railway, originally built in 1923 and upgraded over the years, transports passengers to the summit.

In the event of scheduled maintenance of the funicular railway, the tour will be replaced with a visit to the Penang Botanical Gardens and the Reclining Buddha. This will be followed by a visit to Kek Lok Si Temple and the Turtle Pond.
