Peaceful Temple Views Without a Price Tag

#cheaptravel During my cheap travel trip to Penang, I made sure to visit Kek Lok Si Temple—and it turned out to be one of the most rewarding parts of my journey. The temple is full of beautiful details, from tall pagodas to colorful tiled rooftops, all surrounded by hills and greenery. The view from the top was absolutely stunning and gave me a quiet moment to just breathe and enjoy. What amazed me most was how accessible it was even on a tight budget. I didn’t need to spend much—just some small change for transportation and optional tram rides. You can walk around the temple grounds, take photos, and enjoy the peaceful atmosphere for free. It’s proof that meaningful travel experiences don’t always come with a big price tag.
