Very nice experience to take train at penang hill. Train looks new and clean, scene along the way is healing and rejuvenating. But if you are taking it halfway, you might need to wait a long time as train does not stop at all stations. There is a phone prepared which customer can call to confirm train stopping time at the station. Fun and great experience.
Good view, fresh air, good for tourists
Must buy fast lane or queue for 1hr for both up and down
Enchanting place with great view. Bit of rush always due to large number of tourists from all over
A nice respite from the busy city area. But it can be crowded if it is the weekend
Mooi! Leuk ritje met de kabelbaan, lijkt wel Oostenrijk!
