Tropical Spice Garden is nestled along the northeastern coast of Penang island. Here, it’s a biodiverse living museum of spices and tropical plants. Additionally, the 5 landscaped acres of the garden is a treasure trove of more than 500 living specimens of lush and exotic flora from around the world.
