Hin Bus Depot Market, Exploring KOMTAR + Northam Beach Café (WeWillNomad)

It's a rainy Sunday on Penang Island but we persevere and hop on the CAT 7 bus to Komtar from where we walk to the Hin Bus Depot Pop-Up Market. We end the day at Northam Beach Cafe for supper around sunset.

Every Sunday you can enjoy hanging out in the garden of HIN BUS DEPOT while enjoying some Kefir Soda or freshly brewed coffee with a delicious snack of your choice while listening to some live music. It's small local community-run weekly pop-market which is aimed at supporting local artists, creative spirits and entrepreneurs and we really enjoyed the fact that this place is far off the tourist radar.

The KOMTAR Tower (short for Kompleks Tunku Abdul Rahman) is currently Penang's tallest skyscraper. The original tower was completed in 1986 and reached 232 metres high making it the second tallest building in Asia at the time. From 2015, in an attempt to revitalise the building, three more storeys were added, raising the height of KOMTAR Tower to 249 metres. This revival included the addition of many of the attractions which the complex boasts today. Although the exterior and lower portion of the building still appear rather old and even somewhat dilapidated, THE TOP PENANG AT KOMTAR TOWER is now home to the highest glass skywalk in Malaysia (Rainbow Skywalk) as well as the world's highest rope course at the exterior of the skyscraper's 65th floor (The Gravityz)! The entrance fee to these and the other attractions is steep, but the observation deck will give you panoramic views over the city and adrenaline junkies may find the experiences on offer exhilarating.
