With some terrific day trip options in the surrounding area, renting a car makes good sense. Without one, it’d be much harder to enjoy everything that Alor Setar, 18 miles away, has to offer. See the sights beginning with Darul Aman Stadium, Kuala Kedah Fort and Alor Setar Tower. Situated 30 miles away, Butterworth is another popular choice. If you swing by, make sure you check out KOMTAR, Gurney Drive and Gurney Plaza.
