Said Good Bye to Penang

The next day of Penang we woke up quite late and we left the hotel by 1pm then we continue to search food. According to hungwei information that usually most good food was on daytime.

We went back to the wantan mee that recommend by Mich. By the way, I also order Asam Laksa but good as the place they brought me to eat before.

Kek Lok Si Night view during Chinese New Year

During the 3rd day of Chinese New Year, we travel around 3 hours from Kampar to Penang. The traffics at Penang bridge was so terrible during that afternoon. Anyhow we still make it on 5 30 pm at the afternoon so we met hungwei at one of the Macdonald near Air Hitam.

After some rest, Hungwei lead us to the Sunway hotel which near Kamdar at the same time really thankz for him to help us out for the booking and seeking hotel rooms to stay overnight. I wonder why so many people coming back to penang…lolz coz the rooms were limited and hard to find. After some rest, hungwei lead me and Ahkwong to Kek lok si as our main purpose to come to penang.

Crowd and terrible jam along the road and pedestrian to Kek Lok Si temple. Many people come here to eat, pray, playing and shooting. Once we reach there we just woaw!!! so nice see from far as you can see beatiful lights and numbers of colorful lantherns hanging around the Kek Lok Si temple.

After finishing walking everywhere we decide to visit the upper part of the Kek Lok Si so we can snap the night view of Penang and the giant Guang Ying Statue. It was unlucky that day coz many people quening for the skyway and heard it was not worth to paid it so we walk up. After reaching the top I understand why so many people want to quene for the skyway as the road was 45 degree up hill and yet we have to walk a distance to reach top…It just make me so sweaty and exhausted. At the same time cars were all quening and jaming there, the smoke and smell of the tyres really make me sick.

Anyhow Penang night view was so beautiful. And my post end up here ^_^
