Ascend Penang Hill, 720-metre above sea level by means of funicular train. Enjoy the bird’s eye view (usually clearer in the afternoon) of George Town and feel the cool and refreshing air at the summit. Another highlight is Kek Lok Si, Southeast Asia’s largest Buddhist temple. Marvel at the 30-metre high statue of the Goddess of Mercy, the 7-tier ‘Thousand-Buddha Pagoda’ and the ‘Pond of Longevity’.
Itinerary
Penang Hills
1 hours 30 minsAdmission Ticket IncludedPenang Hill is the oldest British hill station in Southeast Asia, dated late 1700's. Ride the steep funicular railway up Penang Hill. Enjoy panoramic views across the island and explore the historic British hill station, dating back to the 18th century.Kek Lok Si Temple
1 hours 30 minsAdmission Ticket FreeStaggered on hillside terraces overlooking Air Itam, Malaysia's largest Buddhist temple is a visual delight. Built between 1890 and 1905, Kek Lok Si is the cornerstone of the Malay-Chinese community, which provided the funding for its two-decade-long construction (and ongoing additions). Its key features are the seven-tier Thousand-Buddha Pagoda and an awesome 36.5 meters-high bronze statue of Goddess of Mercy. To reach the temple's main entrance, you'll have to run the gauntlet of souvenir stalls on the uphill path. You'll also pass a pond packed with turtles. There are a lot of stairs involved, but the final stretch up to the statute of Goddess of Mercy is covered by a funicular.

Fine, just too expensive if just kind of close to the city trip with not much too see and price charged.
