## Penang, Malaysia

The image, in natural colour, sharply contrasts the vegetated granitic hills of Penang with the urbanised George Town. The built-up area extends south all along the east coast to the airport. The tourist beach of Batu Feringhee is in the middle of the north coast. The reservoir behind Ayer Hitam Dam is in the centre. The bridge connecting Penang with Butterworth on the mainland is clearly visible. So is the ferry pier on the eastern side of the strait.
