Travel Guide to Malaysia

The train is your best guide here cause it goes interstate. From the airport, there are buses going to the KLCC Mall where you can go interstate or roam around KL or see the Petronas Twin Towers nearby. You can also take the bus route because they have a central terminal. Take this as an alternative to train cause this might be a hassle.

Now you choose which destination you wanna go. Ask people around when necessary. I am sure there are many tourist spots there but I know the Ipoh city best. As I said, you can board the train to go there. Once at the Ipoh station, you can take taxis but you can walk around the block and find an old bus terminal which would take you to the heart of the city. 

What to do in Ipoh? I guess the weather is good there cause its a suburb and the food, I miss it. There are many to choose from but mostly Malay, Chinese and Indian. There are many restaurants there especially at night where they mushroom. They put the monoblock tables and chairs on the middle of road so you eat under the moon and stars and sky. Which is romantic if you have someone special with you. Otherwise its a bummer.

Yep that is funny, just trying to make you laugh. So now the sights, they have a theme park known as the Sunway Lost World of Tambun where there are rides but there is the stunning view of the mountains. I think there are more places to visit there so just ask around and enjoy the variety of food.

Going back to the old terminal, you find directly opposite is a nondescript bus terminal to Pangkor Island. Then you have to take the ferry to the island which is an experience in itself because the saltwater sprays in your face and seeing the sea and the blurry images of the skyline. I went there at the time when two days of heavy rain spoiled the fun so I did not get to see what the beach is like. I just went eating there. What a bummer again.

Another I know pretty well is Penang Island, you go around with their bus system. What to do there, there are many beaches like the Batu Ferringhi and other resorts. By the way, I went there with a car so the best way to travel there is by a car. I think for foreigners you can get a temporary Malaysian driving license within two days if you have a driving license from your country. So now you drive North of Penang and its like the roads are carved around the mountain side and below are the beaches the forms the perimeter of the island. When you see cars parked at one side, there you stop and see if it is a free beach spot.

Always wanted to make this blog. So there you go, Happy Trip.
