Entopia by Penang Butterfly Farm

Introducing Entopia, the new Nature Learning destination in Penang. By sharing knowledge about the natural world – both seen and unseen, Entopia hopes to inspire people to experience nature in a new way. Entopia  is the reconstruction of the once Penang Butterfly Farm, that is situated in Teluk Bahang. “We turned the old facility from approximately 30,000 square feet to now over 100,000 square feet in Phase 1 of our development (2015-2016). And after our opening, the continuation of Phase 2 which is scheduled in 2019, will eventually reveal an expansion to approximately 140,000 square feet of facility,” said Joseph Goh, the Chief Executive Officer of Entopia.

Never Enough of Kimberley Street

Welcome to the Streets of George Town. Every issue, we bring you on a vicarious tour of the heritage trails of Penang highlighting its history, attractions and more! Known as “Swatow-kay” or Swatow Street among the Penangites, Kimberley Street (Lebuh Kimberley in Malay) is definitely one of all foodies’ favourite food destinations in George Town. It runs from Penang Road to Carnarvon Street in the heart of the city, clustered with streetside hawker stalls which started near the intersection with Rope Walk (Jalan Pintal Tali). Most of the stalls in the street are operated by second- or third-generation hawkers, and had been there since World War II. Kimberley Street was named after John Wodehouse, the Earl of Kimberley, who was the British colonial secretary in the 1870s. The road was created in the late 19th century and was populated by Teochew immigrants from the Swatow Province, who made bihun (rice noodles) and mee suah (vermicelli), drying them in the open.
