Travel Proposal: Balik Pulau / Bayan Lepas @ Penang

A Proposal for Family Trip

Balik Pulau has been a rather quiet agricultural town, in stark contrast to the bustling city centre at the eastern side of Penang Island. As agriculture does not feature prominently in Penang's economy, Balik Pulau is said to have the last remaining paddy fields in all of Penang Island.
