Batu Ferringhi

If you are going to plan to travel with your family or your partner, Batu Ferringhi is definitely a good choice. Batu Ferringhi is a beach resort and the most popular thing to do is, of course, relax. You have the option of excellent hotel swimming pools or the long stretch of Batu Ferringhi's white sand beach, where you can enjoy a massage for less than £5. Besides, you can try Malaysian street food at the Long Beach food court. And you can't skip the night market which is arguably the main evening attraction in Batu Ferringhi. This is a vibrant collection of hand-made gifts, clothing, apparel, and usual market trinkets that you’d find in markets throughout Asia.

In addition, you can visit the Penang Tropical Fruit Farm which is home to fruits from around the world, and of course the local favorites. Or enjoy a fancy dinner at the Shangri-La Rasa Sayang Hotel overlooking the immaculate gardens and pool area of the hotel. Entopia and Penang Butterfly Farm are one of the places to visit in Batu Ferringhi. This relatively new learning center is home to countless species of colorful butterflies, reptiles, and insects and the attraction is set in a tropical dome.
