George Town (or Georgetown) is on the west coast of Malaysia. It is the second largest city in the country, and as far as I can see, it had little to warrant a stop here. We had a 3 hour bus ride around the city with the usual churches, temples, and oldest this and that pointed out by our guide. The only problem was that almost everything was on the left side of the bus, and we were on the right side. It would have been fun to trace our route on a map since we passed several of the same places 3 or 4 times.

The city is known for its street art. This is the only one we saw.

There are many betel nut palm trees in town. The betel nut looks and grows like a very small coconut. The leaves can be chewed, but they cause mouth cancer.
