Program details

Enter the country’s premier War Museum, located right here in Penang. It is here to tell stories covering all aspects of life in wartime. Take a trip back in time and get a first hand account of the war with the impressive exhibits, including a ‘glimpse’ into the daily lives of soldiers during WWII. This mighty military fortress was built in the 1930’s by the British to protect the island from enemies.

Later, you will get to see the Penang War Memorial which was dedicated to the brave soldiers who sacrificed their lives during the First World War. Next, you will be taken for an authentic banana leaf lunch in George Town. The banana leaf is used as it is believed that the hot rice will release the coating on the banana leaf, which aids in digestion. Remember, fold the banana leaf towards you to show your appreciation after the satisfying meal!
