From my (very limited) view of Malaysia, and Penang specifically, I was struck by the mix of people, cultures, religion, food and traditions. Penang’s population is made up of a wide range of people but is primarily split between Malay, Chinese and Indian.
How many languages are on this sign?
After spending so much time in fairly homogeneous Thailand, being smack in the middle of all these different groups really stood out to me.
It was particularly obvious when noticing all of the different places of worship right next to each other, or even mixed up together.
Mosques and Hindu and Chinese temples dotted the island.
And, of course, some churches too.
Where have you been where the culture or religious diversity stood out?
