Penang's Komtar is a treasure trove full of surprises!
Many people visit Penang may not be aware of this place, where you can enjoy the urban scenery and charming coastline of Penang. It's a must-visit spot when traveling to Penang! Here lies the Rainbow Skywalk, located at the tallest building in Penang, the Komtar Complex. The Komtar Complex itself has undergone several changes. It houses the largest shopping mall in Penang and was once a government office building. It was only after the complex added three more floors to the original 65, reaching 68 floors, and opened an outdoor observation deck with a glass floor at the top, known as the Rainbow Skywalk we see today, that it gradually came back into the public eye.
👉 Travel Tips: The Komtar Complex has 68 floors, and the sightseeing elevator can take you directly to the 65th floor, where there is an indoor observation deck with a section of glass flooring that allows you to see the ground below the 65 floors, which is quite thrilling. There are also outdoor activities like skywalking that challenge your adrenaline. From the 65th floor, you can take an elevator to the 68th floor, where there is an outdoor skywalk observation deck without walls, offering a more expansive view. Here, you can take in the whole of Penang at a glance. The all-glass flooring also gives a feeling of being closer to nature.
There is also a scenic restaurant on the 68th floor where you can enjoy afternoon tea or dinner. Choose a window seat for a scenic view, and enjoy delicious food while admiring the unbeatable view, which is extremely pleasant.

The Tun Abdul Razak Complex (abbrev. Komtar), formerly the Penang Urban Centre, is a civic complex within the central business district of George Town in the Malaysian state of Penang. At the time of its completion in 1985, Komtar Tower, at 231.7 metres (760 ft), was the second tallest building in Asia and the tallest in Southeast Asia until 1986 when it was surpassed by One Raffles Place in Singapore.
The tallest building in Penang which houses government offices has been transformed into a tourist attraction. On top, there is the largest theme park.
Visiting The TOP inside a towering building is an exhilarating experience, unlike any other. Undoubtedly, the highlight is the stunning glass skywalk
This was the best decision I made in George Town! This place is highly recommended because you can enjoy a beautiful 360 view of the island.
