#cityDAYTour #100 ways to travel Traveling freely in Malaysia, we left the resort of Langkawi and took a luxurious flight to #Penang #Georgetown, a place with many Chinese people and famous snacks. First, we took a relaxing #city day trip. ✓Itinerary: Mural Street - Surname Bridge - Nyonya Museum - Old Guanzijiao Bell Tower - Blue House - Shantou Street Night Market The first attraction to visit is of course the most famous mural street in Penang, #Georgetown. There are murals of sisters and brothers riding together, swing murals, cat murals... etc. The lifelike murals are scattered on the walls of the alley corners. Take a look around one by one. It’s really fun to collect, check in and take photos. Next, we visit #surnamebridge. This is where the early Chinese settled. The houses on the water are elevated above the sea. Walking across the winding wooden trestle, you look out at the seaside port. Watching the sunset at sunset is quite romantic. #nyonyamuseum is the third attraction to visit. The so-called #nyonya are Chinese, Malaysians and descendants of Chinese. Most of their families have become rich in business or become officials, and have made a name for themselves in Malaysia. Today's museum is actually a mansion and villa owned by local Chinese people. It is very similar to the Lin Family Garden Mansion in Wufeng, but it is more noble and gorgeous. It is a savage! #老 Guanzaijiao Clock Tower The seaside area includes the Bell Tower, Fort Cornwallis, Esplanade Art Center and other attractions. You can take a walk and look at the sea. There is also the Norm Micro Roastery, a coffee shop nearby. Be sure to go in and have a try. , blow the air conditioner. #张婷婷的故事, also known as #蓝屋, is the mansion of Zhang Bishi, the richest man in Nanyang during the Qing Dynasty. It is characterized by indigo paint. It has a restaurant and a hotel. Thinking about it, staying one night in a rich person's home in ancient times seems to be a good experience. What to do if you get hungry while walking around? Then come to Wanwangji Chuan Tofu Pudding and taste the traditional tofu pudding from Ipoh, Malaysia. How is it different from the Taiwanese taste? If you are hungry, #Shantou Street has a variety of local snacks, such as oyster omelette, fried rice noodles, four-fruit soup, satay...etc., the taste is very Tainanese and the price is very affordable. # PenangTravel #One-day tour in the city #100 ways to travel

#100 Ways to Travel A very special attraction in Penang, Malaysia, the floating houses located on the waterfront of George Town, are the early Chinese immigrants who lived a hard life. In order to save land tax, they built their houses on the sea, and gathered together according to their surnames on the bridge, which was called #SurnameBridge. The surname bridges are still inhabited today. In their heyday, there were nine bridges in total: Wang, Lin, Zhou, Chen, Li, Yang, and Miscellaneous (Shi) surname bridges. Two others have been demolished, namely the Guo surname bridge and the Ping'an bridge. The floating settlements of the surname bridges are built with piles supporting the bottom and planks on top. The longest wooden bridge even extends 500 meters into the sea. Walking on the Bridge of Surnames, you can not only enjoy the sea view of Penang, but also experience the life of the people living on the water and try some local snacks. The old town of George Town is famous for its street murals, which vividly depict the daily lives of locals on the walls, making them ideal for street photography or group photos. The famous murals are all very close to the Surname Bridge, so you can visit them all. #MalaysiaExploreStore #PenangAttractions #SurnameBridge #Penang #Georgetown

#penang Landed in Penang for a day and decided to walk around Georgetown. As we heard about the clans jetties, we decided to pop by to take a look. It was really interesting to see how the locals live by their surname in these jetties. One of the jetties was sort of "commercialise," and there is a stretch. of shops selling souvenirs and food. But well, do respect the residents who are still living there by keeping our volume low. #Malaysia #JettyClans

Rating: 3/5 Getting There - Grab! There’s also buses that stop nearby and you can check google maps for the bus route / timing! Attractions - Tan and Lim jetties were VERY quiet but nice to see the old houses which were very picturesque! Chou jetty was the most popular with tourists, with quite a few shops and snacks available! Overall very different from pre-covid times, very quiet and not much to look at 😢 Food & Restaurants - There are quite a few coffee shops that are patronised by locals in the vicinity that sell the usual malaysian food! Didn’t try but looked popular with locals. Shopping - A lot of tourist shops at Chou Jetty (姓周桥) which is the most touristy out of the 3 bridges.

I visited Penang few years before with my husband for our anniversary. we drove to Penang from KL and reached there after 4 hours. Our initial plan was just a simple “checked in” at the Clan Jetties due to long travel time and exhausted body. Guess what, the stunning view of sunset of Clan Jetties ( uploaded above) had successfully let us spend an hour over there. There was a coffee shop inside the clan where we can have the view of the above pictures (not sure still there or not). A cup of coffee with the above views are the best moment of my life. #penang #stunningview #chillax

Cool place to visit, one of the jetties in Penang where locals stay at. Most of the nearby houses along the main road have been converted into stores or cafes. Boat trips are also offered. great for selfies. #penang#jetty#cafe

Penang Travel - The fishing boat on the side of the surname bridge sings late. The surname bridge is not just a bridge. It is a fishing village on the shore of this sea. The biggest feeling of coming to the surname bridge is like coming to the Tai O fishing village in Hong Kong. The famous "Shuqiao" has small crafts in it. It feels like everything is exported from China and then changed to Penang style. (The things they sell personally feel that there is no special feature, and the quality is not bad, I will not be embarrassed when I lose the ground.) I have not been to Tai O fishing village, I think there is no special feature here, that is, ordinary Just a fishing village, then look at its fishing boat singing late?

The surname bridge in Penang, Malaysia is somewhat like the Tai O fishing village in Hong Kong. It is a wooden house area built on wooden boards. It is divided into areas by surname. There are surnames Linqiao, surname Zhouqiao, surname Chen Qiao, surname Li Qiao, surname Yangqiao, Miscellaneous Bridge and Ping'an Bridge are said to have been unable to step into the family before, but now they have become tourist attractions. Surname Zhouqiao is the most frequent visitor to tourists. Most of the residents here are middle-aged and elderly people. They are basically Chinese. The style of the surname bridge is somewhat like Gulangyu...haha~ is also a literary art, many The usual fishermen did not go out to fish, but opened their own house into a holiday home. It is said that the "First Love Red Bean Ice" starring A Niu was once here. The old street in Penang near the surname bridge is the most concentrated area of Penang's three-dimensional murals. The Penang three-dimensional mural is a project of local artists in Penang. The main content is the local cultural style of Penang, but the mural comparison Scattered, often hidden in an inconspicuous corner, blending with the surrounding environment. If you want to finish reading it all, it is recommended to buy a map and click on it. It must be said that the artists in Penang are really talented. The history and culture of Penang is very strong. Together with these interesting and realistic murals, it is even more icing on the cake.

When you come to Penang, the surname bridge is a place you can't miss. It is a must-see for you to learn about Penang and integrate into your local life. Everyone here builds the house on the sea, the bottom is supported by wooden stakes, and the households are connected by wooden boards. Because these people are connected to the sea and the land and they live together in a family of surnames, that’s why it is called the surname bridge. This is also the earliest gathering place for Chinese in Penang. Penang was once one of the most important seaports in Southeast Asia. With the demolition of some bridges, the surnames Lin surname Zhou, surname Chen, surname Li, surname Yang and different surnames are all included in the bridge. The world cultural heritage category has been protected. Zhouqiao, the largest surname, has more than a thousand residents. It is said that it monopolizes the right to buy and sell goods from Indonesia. The surname Li Bridge monopolizes merchant ships from China. The surname Chen and surname Yang Qiao are the main economic activities, mainly based on wood and charcoal. The film "First Love Red Bean Ice" was once shot here, and the artist Wu Qixian's home is also here.

Capturing the colors of Studio Ghibli animations on the streets of Penang can be approached through light and shadow, scenes, composition, and other aspects. Here are the specific techniques: 1. Seize the golden shooting period • Soft light in early morning/evening: Studio Ghibli animations often use soft light and shadow to create a dreamy feel. It is recommended to shoot within 1 hour after sunrise (7:00-8:00) or 2 hours before sunset (17:00-18:00). At this time, the sunlight slants, and the streets are dyed warm yellow or pink-purple tones. For example, the shophouses in George Town show a soft orange-red under the sunset, similar to the street scenes in "Spirited Away." • Atmosphere on cloudy/rainy days: The diffuse light on cloudy days can make colors more saturated (such as the bright murals on Mural Street). Wet streets after rain reflect building colors, combined with puddle reflections, making it easy to capture the fresh and moist texture seen in "My Neighbor Totoro." 2. Make good use of color contrast and matching • High saturation contrasting color scenes: Look for brightly colored elements on Penang streets, such as the blue-purple walls on Mural Street, the yellow vintage car mural, or the mint green shophouses with rose-red doors and windows on Lebuh Keng Kwee. Use the "vivid mode" on your phone/camera to enhance colors, mimicking the exaggerated yet harmonious color schemes in animations. • Natural colors echoing architectural colors: For example, at Penang Hill, use the lush green of the tropical rainforest as a background, paired with the orange funicular train or red rooftops, creating a contrast between natural and artificial colors, similar to the fantasy scenes in "Howl's Moving Castle." At Clan Jetties, use the blue seawater and brown wooden houses to form a warm-cool contrast, highlighting the depth of the image. 3. Composition techniques: creating an animated story feel • Low-angle upward shots: Use the sky as a background to shoot the pointed tops and colorful windows of shophouses, or have people stand at the end of the street. Shooting upward elongates building lines, creating the spacious feeling of "Castle in the Sky." For example, on Lorong Love, shoot the white shophouse arcades from a low angle, with sunlight streaming through the columns to form light beams, adding depth to the image. • Framing composition: Shoot street scenes through windows, arches, or tree shadows. For instance, shoot the courtyard through the carved window frames of the Khoo Kongsi Museum, or frame pedestrians within the colorful door frames of Love Lane, making the image feel like an animation storyboard full of stories. • Negative space and foreground blur: Leave large areas of sky or wall when shooting, such as using the colorful walls of George Town as a background, placing the subject on one side of the frame and leaving the other side blank. Pair this with blurred foreground flowers and plants (like the petals of the trumpet trees on Penang’s Sakura Street) to mimic the tranquil "empty shots" in animations. 4. Interaction between people and scenes: restoring the animation atmosphere • Dynamic capture: Let models run, wave, or walk under the shophouse arcades with umbrellas, capturing natural movements. For example, shoot people chasing waves on Batu Ferringhi Beach with low-angle shots to create the sense of freedom from "Ponyo." • Props enhancement: Bring transparent umbrellas, rattan bags, vintage cameras, and other props to interact with the "Cycling Child" mural on Mural Street, or use a cup of coffee as the foreground in a café at Penang Hill to add a sense of life to the image. 5. Post-processing color grading: enhancing the animation texture • Filter recommendations: Use mobile apps (such as VSCO, Xingtu) to add "Japanese fresh" or "film" filters (like VSCO’s C8 or Xingtu’s "Xiao Kenting"), reduce contrast, increase saturation and color temperature, making colors closer to the bright style of animations. • Detail adjustments: Slightly increase the blue-purple tones in highlights (to simulate the sky in animations), add cyan-green to shadows (to enhance naturalness), and fine-tune sharpness to make building lines clearer and avoid blurriness. 6. Tips for avoiding crowded spots in niche scenes • Avoid crowds: Popular spots like George Town’s Mural Street and Penang Hill are best visited early in the morning to avoid tourists appearing in the frame and ruining the purity of the image. • Utilize corners: For example, the gaps between wooden houses at Clan Jetties or the weathered walls of old streets. These inconspicuous details have the nostalgic texture of "old times" often seen in animations. With these techniques, you can capture the true colors of Penang’s streets while giving your photos the dreamy feel of Studio Ghibli animations, filling them with a healing fairy tale atmosphere~

Penang George Town is a place brimming with artistic charm and historical allure. Here’s a photo spot guide: • Must-Visit Spots: ◦ Mural Street: Located near Lebuh Armenia, this area features numerous murals, including the famous "Children on a Bicycle." Arrive early to interact with the murals and discover creative angles, like standing for the swing mural or crouching for the cycling boy. Other notable murals include "Kung Fu Girl" and "Boy on a Motorcycle." ◦ Clan Jetties: A unique Chinese settlement built over the water, consisting of six jetties. Capture the scenic sea views and the charming wooden houses, showcasing the distinct Nanyang (Southeast Asian) vibe. You’ll also spot traditional Fujian-style elements like gold paper-burning buckets by the shore. ◦ George Town City Hall: A bright yellow building near the sea with a spacious lawn in front. Shoot the grand architecture or use the lawn as a foreground for portrait close-ups, creating a fresh and natural look. ◦ Cheong Fatt Tze Mansion (Blue Mansion): Known for its striking blue exterior, part of this mansion now operates as a hotel. Visit during public tour hours to photograph the exterior or the opulent interiors. ◦ Komtar Tower: Penang’s tallest building. Head to the 68th-floor restaurant or glass walkway for panoramic views of George Town—mountains on one side, sea on the other—especially stunning during sunset. • Photography Tips: - Golden hour (sunset) offers soft lighting for portraits. - Bring two outfits: one light-colored and one vibrant, for varied styles. - Use props like coffee or ice cream to add fun and spontaneity to your shots. - Keep backgrounds clean to highlight your subject. • Notes: - Mural Street is less crowded in the morning with better lighting; afternoons may have queues. - Watch for traffic while shooting—local drivers don’t always yield to pedestrians. - Sun protection is a must, as most mural areas are open-air. Wear hats and sunglasses.

Penang is the most concentrated city of Chinese in Malaysia and a cultural melting pot of Nanyang. It not only has the Sino-Malay Peranakan culture, but also British colonial and Indian elements. The overall climate in Penang is very hot, so be sure to protect yourself from the sun and avoid sun exposure at two or three in the afternoon. Two-Day Itinerary Suggestions 🌈Day 1: Fly in the morning ➡️ Penang Hill ➡️ Kek Lok Si Temple ➡️ Batu Ferringhi 🌈Day 2: Attractions in George Town ➡️ Fly out at night 1️⃣Penang Hill [Photos 2-5] 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 🚗Take a taxi to Penang Hill Lower Station 💰Cable car: MYR 30 (regular), MYR 80 (VIP), The Habitat: MYR 60; discounts for those over 60 years old (passport required) ⏰Penang Hill: 6:30–21:00; The Habitat: 9:00–21:00 🚡A highlight of Penang, the mountain cable car is very unique. It travels at a 30-degree uphill angle through the dense rainforest, like a scene from a Miyazaki animation. If you go on the weekend, it is recommended to buy a round-trip VIP ticket directly, which can reduce the queueing time by more than an hour, and you can also get on the bus early to grab a good shooting position (choose the tail car in the direction of travel, whether going up or down the mountain). 🔭After arriving at the top of the mountain, the best viewing platform is on the second floor of the cable car station. You can overlook the city of Penang, the blue sea around it, and the mountains on the opposite bank. If you go up the mountain early in the morning, you can watch the sunrise here. 🌳The Habitat on the top of the mountain is also worth a visit, especially the canopy walk that crosses the tropical rainforest canopy, and the circular boardwalk on the top of the mountain, where you can experience the density of the tropical rainforest. 2️⃣Batu Ferringhi Beach [Photos 6-7] 🌟🌟🌟🌟 🚗Take a taxi to Batu Ferringhi Beach 🏖️A great place to watch the sunset in Penang.

#earthdayjourney #penang #walkingtour My 4hours eco-tour around Georgetown was an unforgettable journey through history, culture, and vibrant street life. As I walked through the heart of this UNESCO World Heritage site, I immersed myself in its stunning architecture, colorful murals, and bustling markets, all while treading lightly on the environment. From the iconic clan jetties to the charming streets lined with heritage buildings, each stop revealed a new layer of Georgetown's rich past. The tour was not only a feast for the eyes but also an opportunity to support sustainable tourism. By walking instead of taking transportation, I was able to appreciate the city's beauty in a more mindful, eco-friendly way. Each step brought me closer to the heart of Georgetown, where history and modernity coexist in perfect harmony.

We spent two amazing days in George Town, exploring its vibrant streets, rich history, and stunning nature. Here’s what we did and some tips if you’re planning a visit! Day 1: Culture & History • Street Art Tour – We started by walking through George Town’s famous street art scene. The murals were impressive, and finding them felt like a fun scavenger hunt! Some, like “Kids on a Bicycle,” are interactive, so don’t forget to pose for a photo. • Clan Jetties – Next, we visited the iconic clan jetties, floating wooden villages built by Chinese settlers. We explored Chew Jetty, where we walked along the wooden pathways, admired the stilt houses, and enjoyed the peaceful waterfront views. • Buddhist Temple – We wrapped up the day at one of George Town’s beautiful Buddhist temples. The architecture and details were incredible, and it was a serene way to end the day. Day 2: Nature & Views • The Habitat at Penang Hill – We took the funicular up to Penang Hill and explored The Habitat, a stunning nature reserve with breathtaking views. Walking through the rainforest canopy was a highlight, and the Curtis Crest treetop walk gave us an amazing 360° view of the island. Tips for George Town: ✔️ Wear comfortable shoes – You’ll be walking a lot! ✔️ Start early – The heat and humidity can get intense by midday. ✔️ Use Grab or walk – Parking is tricky, and the best way to explore the old town is on foot. ✔️ Try the food – George Town is a food paradise! Don’t miss out on char kway teow, laksa, and cendol. George Town is full of charm, history, and adventure—definitely a must-visit in Malaysia!
