culture tip
Penang(槟城)是马来西亚13个行政州之一的槟榔屿 (Penang Island) 州首府所在地。它是一个以华人为主,具有古老历史文化的城市,也是马来西亚的第二大城市。相传早在1405年,郑和下西洋途中曾在此逗留。
Georgetown(乔治市)是槟城的中心城区,因英王乔治三世而得名。
Weld Quay(海墘街)指槟城渡轮码头及其附近的一片地区,是槟城过去和现在的缩影。游客可以在这里看到槟城的美景,体验槟城人的生活,品尝当地的特色美食。当地建筑风格多样,历史遗迹、旧时房屋和现在建筑相互映衬,绘就了一副槟城有特色的的风景画卷。
Penang Hill(升旗山)为槟城的高点,主峰高830米。由于昔日英国高官多居住于此,山下士兵利用旗语传递重要讯息,故得名“升旗山”。登山游客可以选择搭乘缆车,或沿着缆车轨道旁的小径及梯级徒步而上,一路欣赏隐藏在升旗山热带雨林内的奇花异草,沿途并可俯瞰乔治市的壮丽景色。
