Already in the early days of Penang, THE Waterfall has been a tourist attraction. The stream was one of the important water sources for Georgetown.
The fall is located in the Botanical Garden.
In the Botanical Garden
The Botanical Garden of Penang is a popular destination for locals and tourists alike. And the Waterfall stream still runs through the garden, inviting people for a cool dip.
But the Waterfall is out of bounds
Unfortunately the location of the waterfall is in a water catchment area and out of bounds. The sign explains the value of this HERITAGE SITE, which " will be restored to its importance as a tourist attraction" Dated: 1988 .....
To visit the fall, a permit is needed, which can be applied for at the PBA in the Komtar complex. We have not yet done this ourselves.
