Durian Fests in Penang

Participants at the 2006 AsiaExplorers Durian Feast, the first at Bao Sheng Durian Farm (1 July 2006)

List of Durian Fests I have attended

Call it feast, fest or festival, these are durian-eating banquets for enthusiasts to indulge in various types of durians. My favourite durian fests take place at Bao Sheng Durian Farm, due largely to Mr Chang, who could provide good interpretation of durians in English and other local languages.

Between 2006 and 2009, I organized annual AsiaExplorers Durian Feasts, which attracted participation from durian enthusiasts in Malaysia and Singapore. After 2009, I stopped organizing the feasts to spend more time in building up my then new website, AsiaExplorers, and relinquish the role of organising to others. I am glad to see that the Bao Sheng Durian Farm has grown from strength to strength since then.

About this website

Dear visitor, thank you so much for reading this page. My name is Timothy Tye and my hobby is to find out about places, write about them and share the information with you on this website. I have been writing this site since 5 January 2003. Originally (from 2003 until 2009, the site was called AsiaExplorers. I changed the name to Penang Travel Tips in 2009, even though I describe more than just Penang but everywhere I go (I often need to tell people that "Penang Travel Tips" is not just information about Penang, but information written in Penang), especially places in Malaysia and Singapore, and in all the years since 2003, I have described over 20,000 places.

While I try my best to provide you information as accurate as I can get it to be, I do apologize for any errors and for outdated information which I am unaware. Nevertheless, I hope that what I have described here will be useful to you.
