It's Been Awhile, Penang Hill

Two years ago, was my last check-in to Penang Hill. This year, is my recent appearance on the hill together with my buddies. We met up early in the morning and taken our ride in the new cable car straight towards Penang Hill on the 45ยบ slope. The new cable cars that were launched months ago are surprisingly faster than before. Besides, they are both air-conditioned. It took us about 10 minutes of ride each to our desired destination comfortably.


Arriving early in the morning on the Hill of Penang's, we were welcomed by the chilling weather unlike the heat we are all withstanding right now below the hill. What a favorable temperature up there! We spent an hour or two on the hill loitering around, trying to enjoy the sceneries, visit the Hindu Temple, and some other minor activities. It was so disappointing to see the haze hogging the clean air of Penang, from where this nearest western haze came from? Despite the disappointment, the sunrise was a savior of that morning. We were struck by our hunger on the hill when we decided to get down the hill for our memorable dishes in our high school nearby as there are no much options we have in the renovating food court. 


With the speed of the new cable car that is going down from the hill, it does feels like riding on a roller coaster if you are sitting in front of the cable car. The major improvements on the cable cars are, excellent! I wish to have a clear sceneries from the hill on my next visit and of coarse, the clean air. Hope you enjoy the videos!
