On getting up the hill for Splendid View

Last Saturday, we took a cable car up to a place that have the most splendid view in Penang... Anyone know where is this place that you could see the whole panoramic view of Penang? Yup~ It's the Penang Hill.

Me: Dude, this is the first time to go up... Just wanna to let you know. Don't expect too much eh~
Friend: Why?
Me: Up there nothing much. You are able to see the whole Penang view, a few old hotels, one indian temple, one mosque. That's all.
Friend: Is it? Okie
Me: Yup... we just need about the most 3 hours to finish everything.

Went to buy the ticket and off we went up the hill...

Splendid view of the city of Georgetown

Owning a Nikon 18-200mm zoom lens, i managed to take a closer shots of Malaysia longest Bridge from the top of the hill. Errrr.... whenever i saw the Penang Bridge, first thing comes to my mind... Massive Jam... hehehe... with the 3rd lane now, it actually easy the traffic a bit... :)

We left Penang Hill at about noon and headed for lunch :)
