Sights in Penang : Chin Farm Waterfalls @ Batu Ferringhi

 The rather hidden cascade of Chin Farm is tucked deep within the lush, hilly terrain of Batu Ferringhi, Penang, offering a refreshing escape from the bustle of the nearby beach town. This natural gem features multiple tiers of waterfalls, with cool, crystal-clear spring water flowing gently down rocky slopes, surrounded by dense greenery and the sounds of the forest. It’s a peaceful spot, perfect for those seeking solitude or a quiet nature walk.

Back in the 1980s and 1990s, Chin Farm was a beloved local retreat, often bustling with families enjoying picnics, dips in the pools, and the simple joy of being close to nature. Though now less frequented and slightly off the radar, it still holds nostalgic value for many Penangites and remains a hidden treasure waiting to be rediscovered by adventurous hikers and nature lovers.
