About Balik Pulau...

History...

Balik Pulau is an old 'rustic' town in southwest of Penang that offers refreshing country air, charming mosques, soothing sight of paddy fields and variety of seafood delights. It showcases a glimpse of slow-paced rural life that is fast disappearing due to onslaught of modern development. The drive along the winding road there gives a fantastic view of the coastline and the beautiful surrounding off-shore islands.The town is made up of few fishing village such as Teluk Kumbar, Kampung Pondok Upeh, Kampung Sungai Burung, Gertak Sanggul & Pulau Betong.These village have interesting origins of their names. For example, Teluk Kumbar was named after a palm called pokok kumbar, Kampung Pondok Upeh was so named because the earlier settlers built their huts with the leaves of the upeh pinang and Kampung Sungai Burung was founded on the mouth of a river with plenty of birds.The HistoryAccording to historical records, the early Malay settlers on Penang island were refugees from Kedah who were fleeing from Siamese invaders. They made their homes in Bukit Dumbar and Bayan Lepas. Later, in 1786 when the Chakri Dynasty came to power in then Siam and expanded the kingdom, there was more migration of Malays and Thai Muslims from Pattani, Yala, Narathiwat, Perlis and Kedah to Balik Pulau.This scenic area, surrounded by hills, was a perfect place for them to escape persecution from their enemies. Today, many families in this town trace their ancestral roots from southern Thailand.

Places Of Attraction

Wet Market and Sunday Market

The Balik Pulau market is located within the newly built government complex on Jalan Tun Sardon just before you reach the town. (The original market built in 1904 is located in the centre of the town). Inside the market complex one can find a variety of fresh produce from this agricultural district. Among the more sought after local products in the dry goods section of the market are nutmeg fruit, juice and oil, cloves, fish crackers, shrimp paste, preserved and fresh fruit. Fronting the market are food stalls that sell local breakfast delicacies, fresh fruit and knick knacks. On Sunday mornings, the car park at the back of the main bus station next to the market is transformed into an agricultural market or “Pasar Tani”, where farmers bring down their produce and fishermen bring in their fresh catch. (Sunday Open 6am-10am)

Durian Farm

The hills surrounding the church and beyond are planted with clove, nutmeg, durian and fruit orchards. If you drive further down the Main Road past the four wooden houses after the church, a gateway on the right will lead you into the Lim family compound and farm at No. 51, Titi Serong. Clove and nutmeg were introduced by the East Indian Company into Balik Pulau as early as 1794. These spices were highly sought after in Europe because they had exotic, medical and culinary uses. Both plants thrive on the hilly slopes of Balik Pulau facing the sea.Balik Pulau is often known as a durian connoisseur’s paradise. Durian is a football-sized, green, thorny fruit with a powerful smell and an awesome taste. It fruits in abundance between July and August. The ripe fruit falls of the tall trees and is best eaten on the same day. The durian is dissected by running a knife along the segments and pricing the wedges open. Each wedge contains seeds covered by delicious custard-like flesh. Tradition advises that you drink water from the wedged skin to ward off the powerful smell from your breath! Numerous species of durian are available in Balik Pulau with tastes ranging from sweet to bitter-sweet, and textures from fibrous to smooth.

Pulau Betong Fishing Village

One kilometer past the belacan factory, you will come to a fork in the road. The right fork takes you to Pulau Betong, a scenic fishing hamlet. Decades ago the thriving river was used to transport incoming goods such as flower pots and cooking utensils and outgoing agricultural procedure such as cloves, nutmegs and dried coconuts via the Oh Jetty (at the river mouth) and the Toji Jetty (where school is currently located). Today river transportation has disappeared but boats are used instead to support a lively fishing business.

Pantai Pasir Panjang

After Pulau Betong fishing village, backtrack to the fork in the road. Turn right at the fork and it will take you to a beautiful stretch of shady beach called “Pantai Pasir Panjang”.

Paddy Fields

Cruise along Jalan Pulau Betong until you reach a multiple road junction, Jalan Sungai Nipah on your left will take you to paddy fields. Alternatively turn left into the tiny road after the big mosque on Jalan Genting. This road will lead you to beautiful paddy fields cultivated historically by both Malays and Chinese. Fallow fields were ploughed by buffalo; seeds were washed and planted in the nursery, then replanted in the fields. Ripened paddy was harvested by hand, dried, then thrashed manually to separate the grain from the stalk and milled locally at Permatang Pasir. Today, high yielding seeds, irrigation canals, tractors and foreign labour have replaced the old ways, but the beautiful scenery remains the same: changing from green to gold over the months, tranquil and romantic at dusk and dawn.

Herb Garden

In Kampung Sg. Korok ask for directions to the herb garden. This garden is also accessible through one of the small roads on the left, off Jalan Bharu, a little further up from the “kuih bahulu” business.

The garden contains over 100 species of plants with medicinal properties. These herbs extracted through a variety of methods have medicinal properties to improve blood circulation, digestion, cure muscular pains and other ailments. Mature plants are processed in the garden itself to produce ingredient for traditional Malay herbal products which you may purchase at the garden. Try the herbal spa. ( Open : 9 am – 6 pm. Call 019-4671792 )

Coconut

Get back on to Jalan Bharu. Just before the first bridge, turn right into Kuala Jalan Bharu, a little fishing hamlet lined with Chinese style wooden cottages. Look out for the Loh family coconut processing business immediately on the right. The coconut is perhaps the most highly utilized plant in Balik Pulau. In this cottage industry, the husks are separated from the coconut kernel, dried and shredded to be used as compost. The flesh of the young coconut is sold for the extraction of oil. This cottage has spawned related businesses such as a plant nursery ( across the road ) and grass growing for golf courses.
