Scenic View

This picture is taken at Gurney drive, one of the beautiful beaches in Penang island. Sadly that it may change in time to come as there will be developments of a new high way/road passing through.

Lonely Beach

Love this image as it gives me both the perspective of a lonely beach and a surreal modern landscape behind it. Feels as though all the rest of the world are so far yet so near.
As you can see that there are a few "Sampans" or fishing boats around which makes this beach untouched by locals and tourists. The access road to here is not well known as it is at the back of a restaurant and used to be a private beach. These beautiful place consists the ruins of a fence and gate of a bangalow house by the beach.... which is a hidden place in town.
The hidden scene, an abandoned bangalow..... lost in time!

C'est interesant! Love this petit small living plant, it is striving to survive in such a harsh place. Hard living indeed.

Visitor's Board

I have found this Heritage Paramount Hotel located near the beach, around the town area near Jalan Sultan Ahmad Shah. I do not know the exact address though. There is a waterfront seafood restaurant directly in front of the hotel, called Ocean Green. I found that this Visitor's board quite unique as nowadays, we hardly find this type of recording in the new or latest hotels or even motels anymore. I think this is the only hotel still using this method of recording. Thus, indeed I find it very interesting!

These are some of the pictures that I took in front of the Ocean Green Seafood restaurant. It's a hidden treasure in Penang as some penangites don't even know it exists!
