Use the QR code obtained from Klook to scan and collect your physical ticket at the Komtar building on the 6th floor at the red kiosks, located right opposite the Ticket Center. You will then receive a paper wristband. When entering various attractions, simply have the staff scan the QR code on your wristband.

I was skeptical at first as Penang's history is not new to me but this production pleasantly surprised me. It was a sincere production with engaging performances. Really appreciate the thoughtful screen on the tables of premium seating as there are pillars blocking the stage view. Dinner was pleasant, taste was good but not wow. Overall an awesome experience which I will definitely recommend for tourist.

After receiving the QR code from Klook, exit the mountain train and head toward The Habitat. This QR code can be scanned at the entrance for the forest walk. However, if anyone wants to watch the sunset at the 7:30 PM session, an additional fee of 18 Ringgit per person is required, and you will receive a yellow lanyard to wear. You can take photos for as long as you like. At the end, a guide will lead the walk back because it gets dark. Those interested in watching the sunset are recommended to bring a small flashlight.

Absolutely fantastic experience and if you are a nature lover or generally enjoy watching birds, you would absolutely love this park. Not many people come here as compared to other attractions in Penang but for us it became one of the top highlights. Apart from seeing a huge variety of birds, the best part of the park is the open and very large cages where you enter and have birds all around you. You'll get to experience them up and close, notice their beautiful colors, their behavior and so on. They have also built a reptile house right at the reception area, where you'll get to see some amazing snakes and other reptiles. This one doesn't require any ticket.

​⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Such a fun and relaxing activity! ​Hands down one of the best activities I did during my trip! Batik painting made learning the art of batik so accessible and enjoyable. The staff was super warm and encouraging, helping us with both the wax tracing and color blending. It was so calming to just sit and paint, and I love how my finished batik piece turned out. A must-try experience!
