Penang Hill is a mountain station on the island of Penang, Malaysia. The altitude is roughly 800 m , which brings coolness to the sometimes hot days at the Penang island. The way to the top of penang Hill is by using the funicular train, constructed in Austria, and built in Penang 50 years ago. The hill station gives a beautyful view over Georgetown and Penang, and at your way up you will probably see some makakis in the trees around the hill station. At the top is a hotel, a buddhist shrine, a mosque and a christian chapel. In this country - Malaysia - religions coexist and the freedom of religion is manifested in the very principles of the Malaysian state.
