CAPTURE 13 : Gurney Drive, Penang.


Gurney Drive or Persiaran Gurney as it is known in Malay, is one of the most popular tourist destination in Penang. This sea-front promenade serves as a vantage point to view sunset. Named after Sir Henry Gurney, the then High Commisioner to Malaya (1951-1950), Gurney Drive is one of the favorite choice for food lovers. To make it short I would say, it is an idle place for relaxation and time-out spot for families, friends and lovers. Here I would love to share some of the shots I took during my stay at a hotel nearby Gurney Drive. I will try get some shots of hawker stalls and many other interesting activities that usually take place here, soon.

Interesting to see such a different part of the world and bliss is how I would describe the foot massage.
