Penang Batu Ferringhi Sidewalk Bazaar (Pasar Malam / Night Market)

Batu Ferringhi Penang is famous for its beautiful beaches where people come here for fun, sun and surf. After sundown, it is time for some relaxation and perhaps a leisurely walk around the area.

During the day, this strip may be quiet but when night falls, it is a hive of activities. Also known as Batu Ferringhi Sidewalk Bazaar, it stretches from Shangri-la Rasa Sayang Resort to Casuarina Beach Resort. It is about 1-2km long. We locals simply call it 'Pasar Malam' meaning Night Market. The place offers many choices for dining, shopping, entertainment and relaxation.

For our dining pleasure, there are plenty of eateries, cafes, restaurants and pubs.

A mini market to replenish our provisions of snacks, drinks, toilleteries and other basic necessities. There's even a mini government health clinic next to this grocery stall which is situated near to a bus-stop.

For shopaholics, there are many stalls selling a wide range of items such as souvenirs, clothes, batik and sarongs, women accessories, watches, belts, handbags, luggage bags, CDs and DVDs, children toys and games sets.

Good bargaining skills are needed here. One can also sample some local street food.

Batu Ferringhi when translated from malay to english literally means "Foreigner's Rock".
