Occupying more than 8 hectares, this lush park offers a beautiful stroll among more than 500 plant and animal species, including the only tropical spice garden in Southeast Asia. You can opt for a guided tour (departure at 9, 11 and 1:30 am) or choose to visit alone with a French audioguide screwed in your ears. Cooking classes are also offered in the morning to learn the basics of Malay, Indian and Nyonya cuisine, as well as the use of spices in these cuisines.

A 5-Star Experience at Tropical Spice Garden with Chef Tarina
I have taken a number of classes at TSG led by Chef Tarina. Her enthusiasm for food is contagious, and her clear instructions ensured that everyone felt comfortable and confident in the kitchen. The class size was perfect, allowing Tarina to provide personalized guidance and answer all our questions.
Chef Tarina’s ability to weave cultural stories into the cooking process created a journey of discovery filled with laughter and a deeper appreciation for the Nyonya culinary heritage.
I highly recommend Tropical Spice Garden to anyone visiting Penang.

A place where u find love, tranquility, peace, harmony and nature bonding. Feels so energetic with fresh air and beautiful landscape. In short, it's "An escape to Paradise"
The best at Teluk Bahang and around

There's a free audio guide on the App "SmartGuide" with a 180 minute tour or the option for a 50 minutes express tour. The quality of the audio guide was superb and one of the best I've ever listened to.
On my mind the garden offers something for everyone: botanical scholars, families, people in search for good photo spots and simple nature lovers. On any case you learn something or spend a wonderful day here.
There is free parking across and a beautiful hidden beach there.
