Balik Pulau is a town within the jurisdiction of Penang Island City Council in the Malaysian state of Penang. Located at the southwest of Penang Island, it is also the administrative seat of the Southwest Penang Island District. While Balik Pulau, and by extension, the western part of Penang Island, is generally seen as quieter in comparison to the bustling city centre on the other side of the island, urbanisation has also reached the town in recent years, with more residential developments being planned for this part of Penang Island.

  • 浮罗山背(馬來語:Balik Pulau,简称“浮罗”)是马来西亚槟城州西南县县城,三面被连绵的中央山脉环绕着,另一面对着马六甲海峡。浮罗山背的东边则为乔治市的垄尾区以及峇六拜的湖内区。浮罗山背于1794年由英国东印度公司创立,是一座于农业为主的城镇。直至今天浮罗山背仍以农业为当地经济的主要来源,并为槟城名产如肉豆蔻、榴梿和丁香的种植地,而这些种植园也被开发成旅游景点供游客体验农村生活。 和东岸的乔治市相比,位于中央山脉以西的浮罗山背因须经过槟岛中央山脉,造成当地发展趋向于缓慢,显得非常宁静,然而随着槟城的急速城市化使得当地也在近年来开始迎来一系列的住宅区发展。 (zh)
