Playing tourist in the street art

Great way to spend a day in historic Georgetown. Get hold of the Street Art Map (available in almost all hotels in Penang) and hit the streets. Some of this murals are really hard to find, so its almost like a treasure hunting expedition. The most famous is the one with a kid on the bicycle that one is a must go. But overall, they are indeed beautiful street art! It's very therapeutic searching & walking down the alley. We decided to stroll around using the bike (gojek) and we had so much fun with it. It made everything better and easier. Can use it while making a vlog or taking a video but beware of your surroundings as the traffics here are so busy. And also if you go a little earlier you might be able to beat the crowds, otherwise you can expect a short wait as everyone takes turns for a photo. The art works are a little faded but they are still there. I hope they get to revive those art works soon so that they can be enjoyed for more years to come #streetart #penangart #penang

🖼 STREET ART 🖼 📍Everywhere in Georgetown is a work of art, from walls, poles to faucets and traffic pillars. I enjoyed exploring this lovely town ; I ate local foods ; the people are warm and friendly. 📍A unique thing about Penang street art is that these murals are not merely lifeless paintings on the wall. They are delicately coordinated with many other objects to create 3D works such as motorcycles, bicycles, a swing, or even a purposefully arranged story in the corner of the house. It brings the feeling that street art murals are both real and imaginary. 📍I also visited the Chew jetty which offers an interesting insight into the history of Chinese immigrants in Penang. the Chew Jetty is the most tourist-friendly with the most stilt-houses, the longest walkway.As people still live in this area be mindful when you take pictures. I stayed the evening to watch the sunset 🌅😍. #penang #penangart #georgetown #chewjetty #clan #malaysiatravel #solotraveler #detraveler #explore #ctripmoments #ctrip

Penang Street Art

If you are in #malaysia and happens to be in #penang , one of the must go would be the #mural or street art. Penang is a state in Malaysia, and the capital is George Town, which is being listed under the UNESCO world heritage site in 2008 as it is a living museum – the #culture (intangible) in the existing buildings (tangible). Means people can be living in the manner of a century ago where the existing buildings are all originals. Penang Murals begins with the #art challenges, which are started to illustrations to reflect the character, multiculturalism and diversity of the inhabitants of George Town. #streetart #familytravel
