Start by seeking out some of the area’s distinctive flavors, stopping to try treats like teh tarik, a sweet, local-style tea. Browse displays of beautiful silks, garlands, Hindu statues, and flowers under signs in Tamil and English, and try shopping for truly unique souvenirs. 

From there, follow the guide to some of George Town’s fascinating nooks and crannies, finding living heritage and crafts that include clog shoes, seal carvings, carved wood signboards, and traditional Malaysian drawings. Stop to see some of the area’s wonderful street murals and wrought iron detailing, then finish the day with return transfer to your hotel.
