Penang Botanical Gardens (Taman Botani Penang)

Founded in 1884, the Penang Botanical Gardens, also known as the Waterfall Gardens, span 71 acres (29 hectares) in a former quarry below Penang Hill. The gardens seamlessly blend jungle with formal landscaping, creating a unique and serene environment. A stream tumbles through the grounds, adding to the natural charm. Visitors can explore the area via a network of walking trails, enjoying the lush greenery and the tranquil sounds of flowing water. This historic site offers a peaceful retreat for those seeking a natural escape.
