Hakka Village 浮羅山背客家山寨 @ Balik Pulau

The Hakka Village of Penang in Balik Pulau. This was advertised on the LCD billboard near Queensbay Mall and also on Facebook. It's a place for suburban homestay and they serve Hakka dishes too.
Here's the location.
Cars are not allowed to go in further.

We had to resort to the simplest kind of transportation; walking. It's about 2km walk and a little bit climb. We could actually call the village so that they'll send some to pick us up to the village by a 4-wheel drive at the cost of RM5 per person for a round trip if you plan to eat there too. Otherwise, it'll be RM10.

Transport + Meal = RM35 per person
Transport only = RM10 per person
Meal only = RM30 per person

Reached at last!! It was after about 30 minutes walk. We were drenched in sweat. Haha.
