Bao Sheng Durian Farm
Titi Kerawang, Penang

Tools

Bao Sheng Durian Farm is a durian plantation at Titi Kerawang, near Pantai Aceh in Penang. It is located between Balik Pulau and Teluk Bahang. The farm is owned by Mr TS Chang, who inherited it from his father. Every year, Penang Travel Tips and AsiaExplorers hold their durian feast at this farm, with assistance from Mr Chang, so that durian enthusiasts can get a chance to try some of the best durians in Penang.

In addition to the durians, Bao Sheng grows several types of fruit trees such as mangosteen, rambutan, jackfruit, soursoup, startfruit and others. I often organise my annual AsiaExplorers Durian Feast at Bao Sheng because the owner, Mr Chang, provides very clear and professional briefing to participants who join, helping them to identify the various types of durians and how to recognise them. He also explains the climatic condition ideal for the growing of durians and why the freshest durians taste the best.

Getting there

If you are coming from the direction of Balik Pulau to Teluk Bahang, Bao Sheng is located immediately after the Titi Kerawang waterfalls. It is at a bend in the road. Look out of the signboard saying "Bao Sheng Durian Farm". Another way to look for the location is to look for the JKR board in front of Bao Sheng Durian Farm which has the number FT006 / 042 / 24.
