Parks & Nature

The Penang Municipal Park (GPS: 5.42548, 100.30068) or Taman Perbandaran Pulau Pinang, is a huge park at the edge of George Town. Better known as the Youth Park, this recreational park for the people of Penang is accessed by a single one-way route, entering through Persiaran Kuari. The Municipal Park was born from quarry land and was created in the early 70's, to provide a recreational area for youths. In its earliest incarnation, the Youth Park, as it was called at that time, had a skating rink (which it still has) and an outdoor auditorium. There was also a place for archery and hiking.

The Penang Botanic Gardens (Taman Kebun Bunga) is a pleasant place to escape the heat of the busy city and enjoy walks or just relax in the tranquil gardens. The gardens (also known as the Waterfall Gardens) were established by the British back in 1884 on the site of an old granite quarry. The park has plenty of wildlife to see. The most common of which are Long-tailed Macaques, Giant Black Squirrels and the very cute Dusky Leaf Monkey. The Macaques can be a bit of a problem, as people have fed them in the past (and some still do), so they can be quite aggressive at times and have been known to snatch bags in the hope that some food is inside.
