Penang Street Art

Looking for a great destination during the Dragon Boat Festival? Penang's street art in George Town is a must-visit spot for global travelers. These artworks not only reflect the local history and culture but have also turned Penang into a paradise for art enthusiasts since Lithuanian artist Ernest Zacharevic began creating them in 2012. Iconic pieces like the children on a bicycle and the child on a chair vividly portray everyday life in the area. These artworks blend elements from Chinese, Indian, and Malay cultures, offering humor and storytelling. Penang's street art is not just a visual treat but also a window into understanding local culture, making it an ideal place to visit during the Dragon Boat Festival holiday.
