- Melaka, for history-and-culture-fascinated couples
One of the best reasons we are on our journey is to learn about the history and culture of our country. However, it is the highest priority for certain couples. No matter how royal a five-star hotel treats you. There are no lavish festivals in great restaurants, as well. The best opportunity for them is to learn something new and share something with their family and friends, either in their homes or in the world.
If you feel like reading that as though you’re talking about what your heart is doing, the good news is that Melaka is your couple’s fantastic destination. The town has various historical sights from the colonial period from the 15th century.
- Penang, for a gastronomic adventure
No wonder all of the couples who love food fly straight to Penang. No wonder. This city of Malaysia, rich in history and culture, also became the country’s food capital. What’s unbelievable is that the true star is not fancy, but that you’re going to drool over the street food.
Besides street food, there are of course good eats around the area. There are also cafés and restaurants offering authentic Malay cuisine that will make your stay a gastronomic event.
- Langkawi, for an adventurous getaway
You guess, it is not a faint heart, Langkawi. No, not for being a dangerous visit, but for being ideal only for those couples who describe themselves as adventurous souls. In Langkawi, you never end up with an action-packed outdoor activity that gives you a near encounter with nature.
