With jungle covered hills and a wealth of beaches, Perak District is on the west coast of peninsular Malaysia and further north, just offshore is the island of Penang - the 'Treasure of the Orient'. From the bustling, winding streets of George Town (a World Heritage Site), where old British colonial buildings stand alongside ancient temples, to the palm trees fringing the coast at Batu Feringgi, and from night markets to irresistible culinary delights, this region has it all.
