UNRAVEL more wonders as you journey up north, traversing the states of Perak, Penang, Kedah and Perlis. Discover cultures that are as diverse as the attractions – islands and beaches, rainforests and caves, temples and museums, theme parks and historic sites – complemented by a delightful mélange of things to experience.

Perak and Penang have enjoyed rapid development since their establishment. Nevertheless, they have retained their old-world charm and natural heritage. Kedah and Perlis are the country’s main producers of rice. They are known not only for their picturesque paddy fields and traditional villages but also as eco-adventure destinations.

The Northern Region is the ideal choice for heritage and old-world charm. Within it lie the internationally famous Pangkor Laut Resort, the UNESCO World Cultural Heritage City of George Town, Asia’s first Global Geopark – Langkawi and the country’s only semi-deciduous rainforest at the Perlis State Park. Wonderful surprises abound here and there are more than enough reasons to make it the perfect getaway.
