This is a very famous Hindu temple in Penang. Can be reached by bus no 10 from Jetty/or by taxi. Situated on top of a hill, one can reach the temple by climbing close to 500 steps. Best time to visit the temple is before 10AM or after 6PM to avoid scorching heat.

513 stairs to climb up, should try only in a cloudy weather. Carry water while climbing. Still some construction is going on. Temple is very big and beautiful. View from top is beautiful and scenic. It's a Hindu temple with statue of lord Shiva and Ganesha.

Good place to visit, but you have to climb 500+ steps and then down...the stairs are good and you will enjoy the way to temple..from a height you can see the gurney side sea view. The main ceremony happens around 5 o'clock, so plan accordingly..and do wear dress that covers you mostly..they wont say anything but its written in instruction there

An absolutely beautiful temple with a steep ascent via a giant staircase but you’re rewarded with beautiful views as well as some local wildlife clambering up and down the electricity poles or in the trees. Sweeping views of the city from the top of the hill

It's a long way ahead. This temple is on the top of a hill and there's lots of stairs to climb in order to reach the temple. The view from the top is worth climbing all the stairs and the temple is nicely designed with beautiful architecture. Not wheelchair friendly, and not really suitable for old people as well, they might get too tired.

What a gorgeous and well-maintained temple! I hope more people will pay a visit. It’s not far from Penang Botanical Gardens. Get to the top of the stairs to see the pagoda and the view of the city. The prayer hall inside the pagoda was closed on the day we went but the colours were already worth the climb. You will also see some dogs, monkeys and goats.
