À propos
Faits rapides: Le site couvre 109 hectares de rues de la vieille ville avec une architecture reflétant plus de 170 ans d'histoire multiculturelle. Les rues regorgent de plus de 500 bâtiments coloniaux, temples chinois, mosquées et maisons de clan, révélant la riche héritage de la région.
Points forts: Les fresques sur les maisons commerciales par l'artiste local Ernest Zacharevic animent les rues, mêlant art et vie quotidienne. Essayez la célèbre nourriture de rue de Penang au marché nocturne de la rue Chulia pour une surcharge sensorielle de saveurs et d'ambiance.
