One of the highlights of Penang Island is the Tropical Spice Garden, which is located at the Teluk Bahang area of the island.

Apart from being the home of hundreds of plant species, the eco-attraction garden also provides a guided tour about the types of flora or spices found in the garden as well as a cooking class for visitors. There is also a Thai food restaurant and a souvenir shop located within the compound of the garden.
