The beaches of Chaweng and Lamai are particularly popular, where soft sand and gentle waves promise pure relaxation.

The oldest city in Malaysia has been shaped over the centuries by a variety of influences and was designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2008. The salmon-red buildings on Dutch Square and the A Famosa fortress bring the colonial era back to life, while the Chinese Cheng Hoon Teng temple and the Kampung Kling mosque reflect the religious diversity of the city.
