We don’t know about you, but one of our favourite things to do is go where we’ve never been before. So how about stopping by Air Itam? A neighbourhood in Penang, you’ll find it 6 kilometres southwest of the downtown area. Coming in via Penang International Airport? Once you've claimed your bags, hop into a taxi and travel 12 kilometres north.
This city is teeming with awesome things to do, and many of them are found near Air Itam. It's difficult to pick the best attractions, but the Kek Lok Si Temple and Penang Hill are two you shouldn't miss. The must-see sights of Fort Cornwallis and the Leong San Tong Khoo Kongsi are also on your doorstep. A great way to better understand this city is to wander some of its neighbourhoods. So why not take off to nearby Kampung Cantik and Kampung Rambutan and discover their sights and sounds?
If you're up for exploring some highlights in the centre of the city, make sure you include Pinang Peranakan Mansion and the Camera Museum. Alternatively, take a look around Clan Jetty and the Wat Chaiya Mangkalaram.
The area's cultural attractions, such as the Studio Howard, the P Ramlee Gallery and the Tan Kongsi, have to be seen!
If you have a taste for arts and culture, stop by the One East Museum, the Batik Painting Museum Penang, the Ibox Museum of Glass Penang and the Owl Museum. Wander around and if one of the works sparks your interest, chat to the staff about its creator.
There's no knowing what you'll come across among the fascinating collections at the Penang Islamic Museum, Penang Vintage Toy Museum and Alpha Utara Gallery. If you don't want to miss a thing, don't be afraid to pick the brains of the friendly staff.
Take a stroll around the Penang Botanic Gardens and the Penang Botanical Gardens. If you're lucky, you might even catch sight of some local critters!
A terrific way to remember your holiday is by returning home with a souvenir or two. See what takes your fancy at Queensbay Mall, Prangin Mall, 1st Avenue Mall and Pulau Tikus Market.
Peer back through the mists of time at the Penang State Museum, the Cheong Fatt Tze Mansion, Penang Times Square and the Pinaon Time Tunnel. These age-old places have a range of intriguing stories to tell.
Whether you want to learn some more about the region's customs and traditions or just soak up the beautiful atmosphere, go to the Sri Mariamman Temple, St. George's Church, Holy Spirit Cathedral and the Kapitan Keling Mosque.
Dress in blue and white and join the hordes of fanatic soccer fans with an undying love for the Penang Football Association. All the excitement happens at City Stadium, just a short commute from Air Itam.
Thankfully, there's a room for you in Air Itam. For a place that's easy on the wallet, book in at either the Heritage Sixteen (16 Lebuh Cranarvon) or the Wil House (50 & 52, Lebuh Leith). Though, if you're the type who likes to live in luxury on holiday, the Shangri-La’s Rasa Sayang Resort and Spa, Penang or the Eastern And Oriental Hotel will be more up your alley.
