Penang Hill & Farlim Night Market | Malaysia Travel Vlog

Today we got to explore the amazing Penang Hill, watch monkeys as they jumped between trees, and indulge in some delicious food at the Farlim Wednesday night market! In our last video, we took a hike to the top of Penang Hill due to the wait time for the funicular being nearly two hours and costing more than we wanted to spend. This turned out to be an incredible decision because we got to interact with our first monkeys which was completely surreal! In this video, we picked back up where we left off: at the end of the hike, sweaty and ready to see some more beautiful scenery. At the top, we took a nature walk which gave us some magnificent views of the greenery! We hoped to see some more monkeys on the bridge but that was yet to come... The massive trees at the top of the hill provided an optimal playground for the countless monkeys roaming around looking for trash left behind by tourists. Their swinging between trees was truly a spectacle and one we will not soon forget! We were able to head onto a sky walk which gave us a unique vantage point to view the menaces. Speaking of them being a menace, when we descended the sky walk, we found them digging through the trash and saw our first mother with a baby holding onto her stomach as she walked around finding food. Following all the monkey excitement, we headed to the Farlim night market for some quick bites and great smoothies which was the perfect way to end our extremely tiring day! This was really a special experience and we hope you enjoy it as much as we did!

[Music] this is so special I think I could be here  for hours seriously I know ah oh hey nope nope Marshall watch the water bottles be careful okay we made it okay now that we are rested not overheating  and have some water in our bodies we're going to start trying to walk around this place  pretty much we're just going to try to see a nice overview of the city and then go to  what is called the habitat it's supposed to be a good little like nature walk through  the through the forest huh there'
s a full City up here no I'm saying we're going to go  to the edge of the hill and look out over Penang over Georgetown no there's not a full City up  here I'm realizing I don't know what this place is we can see this Tower that's sticking  out this is where we're staying we're staying well no we're not staying in that  that'd be so much out of our budget we're staying in that neighborhood though there's also a Sky Deck west I don't see that on here though I don't  see either of the things that
I'm looking for on here okay this way I think we are supposed to be down there Google  Maps is not being friendly up here which is weird because this is like a super popular spot we're totally supposed to be okay how what are you doing come here my millipede go look in I was just trying to show this sign  that I made it and you called me a millipede I don't know what that is I don't  want to get that close now we have a thumbnail so I was fully unprepared for finding monkeys  on our hike up here
but here I did see that they're monkeys so we may encounter monkeys  again hopefully they won't attack we have no water B well oh we did get more plastic water  bottles but they're tucked away so hopefully hopefully they won't attack so I did not know  that it cost money to get into this part of the park so we paid 120 ringgit which is a little  bit less than $30 so it's pretty expensive but I heard I've heard great things about this  this was what I was looking forward to most for coming in th
is park we made it all the way  up here we didn't pay for the funicular which would have been the same amount of money if not a  little bit more I think so why not so we have about an hour to walk through this and in an  hour the shuttle that'll take us back to the front of this park stops in an hour so we have  an hour and it's 1.6 km so got to kind of walk with purpose but it shouldn't be too bad they saw us walk in all of those bugs just started making noise at once that was so loud yeah and
now they're gone I don't know how well the camera is  picking it up but you can see the ocean you can see a little cruise  ship or some kind of boat at least out there in the distance with the haze  the water just kind of blends in with the sky we found more monkeys there's  one right here there's one climbing there's one right behind this tree a bunch over there  that just moved oh gosh you're already unfazed by the monkeys I'm not unfazed you see  their jumps look at the jumps that's so cool o
h I hope you can see that on this camera  whoa that was an insane jump there's monkeys down down at the  bottom I also didn't realize until just now that this platform is just crates and  you can see straight to the bottom so I hate that this is the same view  that we had from the skywalks earlier but even better I think we're uh yeah at  the highest point right now just about so we're getting very close to 6:30 which is  when we were told the shuttle stops taking us back and this is pretty much
the last thing  that we wanted to see so we're just going to turn around and walk back through everything  that we just walked through hopefully that'll get us to the entrance fastest hopefully we  won't be waiting around for well this way we won't be waiting around for a shuttle that  may or may not come because there's 10 minutes left on our way to food yeah we're going to go  get food I was going to say we may not have anything eventful for a little while so  the next time you see us may be
at a night market these guys are literally they're they're  stealing trash yeah like we I was we literally walked up saw the trash I was like who does  this and and then I was like oh the monkeys do this they menaces one of them took a like a  I don't know what it was but it looked like a burger wrapper and ran off into the jungle  look at him look at's he's eating absolute menaces they're going to see your teeth and  no don't come near me don't come near me oh there go there's another coming oh
oh my gosh  look it has a baby on it it has a baby holding on to the oh I don't that's so cool wow that  little baby is just latched on that's adorable wow there's the Mom it was literally 5 seconds  after I said probably nothing interesting is going to happen they are literally right here  so we're having to walk back through their territory yeah there he is we're having to walk through their  territory to get back I am so terrified like I have never seen monkeys before I've been waiting  this
trip I thought we were going to in Thailand and we didn't and here it has taken approximately  3 hours for me to be terrified of monkeys they're still adorable but they're vicious they're awesome  to watch from a distance yeah so quick opinion was not worth $30 for the two of us I liked the  monkeys if we hadn't seen the monkeys before then yes would have been more worth it it was still  cool though to see them again but since we did see the monkeys and such close proximity before  no yeah that
's fair we survived our hike down with no more monkey attacks it took a little  over an hour right at an hour from the top of the park to down at the bottom where we started so  definitely wasn't nearly as bad as the hike up we just got out of our grab at the Farlim Wednesday  Night Market we're starving we have not had anything since lunch it smells amazing so we're  going to go walk around and find some food decided to start out with Marshall's favorite  thank you 40 a dollar not bad not bad t
his seems like it could be pretty spicy what is it oh that's  smells good it smells like a spicy peanut sauce oh yeah how does this that's amazing yeah how does it compare to  satay in Thailand way more peanut flavor yeah um sweet oh I'm glad we got food and I'm glad you like it  you go oh gosh that's very peanuty that's not spicy no not at all I was expecting spicy m I'm so happy  to have food in me yeah I think I think that's some of the best I've had yeah one of my favorite things in Thailand
was banana roti which is pretty much just like a crepe with banana  in it and then some milk and chocolate on it it's so so good some of them had eggs oh yeah  some of them had eggs in it and we just walked by something that looks kind of similar but it's  it didn't look like it was called roti so maybe something different oh what is it oh that sounds great thank you what'd she say she said banana  sweet corn and coconut yeah that sounds amazing I'm so excited you know what I think this going 
to be exactly like what our favorite snack in Thailand that we still don't know the name of we  still don't remember we we took video I'll overlay it but yeah we love the snack in Thailand that was  like these coconut milk balls and sometimes it was just coconut milk and sometimes it was coconut  milk with corn and so I think this is going to be exactly like that I don't know I think this one's  banana it literally is just a little pancake I love yeah this is literally just this  is just the rot
i that you like if it had like the the coconut milk the  sweet milk or whatever it was and chocolate this would be the same try it that's  so good what is this this one she did not say sweet corn what is that  it looks like like minced meat I have no idea what it is it doesn't smell like minced meat  though no not at all it could be like Taro is that it looks like that right I don't know  I have no idea what that is but it's really good I think I like this one better than  the banana yeah awesom
e okay now your turn and then the last one which should be sweet  corn oh wow that's amazing the coconut corn oh oh is it coconut corn no whatever that  is is where I thought she said coconut she must not have said coconut okay cuz I don't  think there's coconut in any of these they're all delicious though it's a great food night so  far we're liking the Farlim Wednesday Market this night market has a totally different  feel than than ones that we went to in Thailand those either were were they
were more permanent  it felt like they were under roofs or they were like in the middle of a street that was set  up and put down every day or whatever day they did it but this one like we're in a little  lot it feels here more like you're walking around a Fairground or like you're walking  at a carnival in the US that's more of the feel here as opposed to like walking down a  street in Thailand pretty cool I like it thank you well we don't know half of what's in here  he added a bunch of differ
ent powders it wasn't like in Thailand I I mean I'm sure they have  this here too but it wasn't like in Thailand where they pretty much just like flop a fruit  in there and a little bit of juice or something it smells delicious it smells wow that is so  sweet definitely the most unhealthy one that we've had I am so fine with that that's perfect  this has been such an exhausting and fun day and I think we're going to end it here we're gonna go rest  I'm glad neither of us had to go to the hospita
l to get rabies shots from getting attacked by monkeys we only lost one cup in the process oh I still feel bad those things were vicious but we'll see you in our next video hopefully still in  George Town because we have a lot more to do here
