[Penang Island Trip] Everyone who lives here is Chou!? Let's go to a rare floating village!

A unique spot in Penang! Introducing the water village "Chew Jetty" where people with the same surname live! ⭐️Review Penang's "Chew Jetty" is one of the traditional water villages on the island of Penang, Malaysia. These villages are places where Chinese people (mainly people from Fujian Province) once built houses on the waterside and lived there. This area in George Town, Penang, still retains its history and culture. Chew Jetty is one of the most famous of them all and is popular with tourists. Here, wooden piers and small houses are lined up on the water, and you can walk around. The people who live in the jetty have been living here for generations, and while it is also a tourist destination, local life remains strong. Chew Jetty is also called "Zhou Family Jetty" and has a historical background where Chinese merchants and fishermen's families once lived. When you visit as a tourist destination, you can enjoy local food and handicrafts, and take photos of photogenic scenery. It's one of the places you'll want to stop by if you go to Penang, which has many tourist attractions! Please go and check it out 🫶 #OverseasTravelStrategy
