Welcome to today's weekly Travelfeed Asia roundup brought to you by @guchtere and @for91days.

We hadn't, but this festival offers tons of unique opportunities for photographers, as you'll see in the first featured post. Next we're featuring a post about a cafe at the Mt. Kalugong Eco-Park, with cute interiors but better views. And if you're into hotels with tradition and heritage, but modern amenities, then the Eastern & Oriental Hotel in Penang might be just the thing for you.

Kape-an: Cafe in Mt. Kalugong Eco-Park (with short clips)
written by @leeart
Kape-an is from the word "kape" meaning coffee and "an" is added to denote a place. "Kape-an" then means a place to drink coffee. If you notice in the picture below KAPE-AN are the words "Sekep kayo ali" which is an Ibaloi language meaning "come in" or welcome.
Eastern & Oriental Hotel, Penang : Review based on our experience
written by @wnfdiary
As you know, we love heritage and authentic always wins over modern in our eyes, but at the E&O Hotel, we didn't have to choose. There we got the legit historical charm with modern necessities.
