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.

A really good museum to visit. The exhibits depict important aspects of Penang's history and the interactive nature of the museum makes it enjoyable for children and adults. The war part was a bit scary but this reflects the seriousness of that part of history as experienced by people living in Penang during WWII. The staff were friendly and happy to help when needed. I recommend the Penang History Gallery to anyone interested in history.

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.

One way in and guides you to one way out the exit pathway. So take as many pics before you walk forward, even though you can walk backwards but still so much ahead. Lots of fun and great group activity.

Bringing the children along, we re-learned about Sun Yat-sen's fundraising process. With encouragement from a third-generation wealthy individual, Sun Yat-sen, who was about to give up on the revolution, regained his ambition. This also spurred Chinese education in Penang. These historical details were not taught so thoroughly when I was in school. And now, children are almost forgetting that Sun Yat-sen was the Father of the Nation. Penang has preserved traditional Chinese culture, and I feel that the authentic Chinese culture in Penang is richer than that in mainland China or Taiwan. Although the guided tour was only half-completed due to time and other factors, I still felt that I benefited greatly.
