Georgetown
Much of Georgetown that was built in the late 1800s and into the beginning of the 20th century still exists, having survived the devastation of World War II and the rapid development that followed Malaysia's independence.
The survival of not only the buildings, but also the entire communities that live in them, have become Georgetown's biggest assets, leading to the city's listing as a UNESCO World Heritage City in 2008. Tours through the streets of Georgetown have become a major attraction to visitors since then.
Most of Penang's famous attractions are located within the city limits (Cheong Fatt Tze Mansion, Municipal Council of Pulau Pinang Hall, Fort Cornwallis, Penang Islamic Museum) and the colourful festivals that the island is known for also take place there.
