A visit to Penang won't be complete without visiting its numerous street art.
Here is the George Town street art I encountered during my brief stay.

we took the city tour which included a trip up to Penang hill. what an awesome ride up with the tram and wow was the view of the island awesome. so many tourists and even local communities all having great time taking photographs. then to the city visiting historic sites was awesome and our tour guide explained everything
Penang Island is lovely but disappointed with cultural tour
michmmckenzie, 12-04-2019
My family and I were really excited to tour George Town, Penang. While our tour guide was courteous and friendly, we felt that the tour did not live up to our expectations. The highlight of the tour was our trip up to Penang Hill. We spent approximately 2 hours on Penang Hill, which didn't leave much time for touring the rest of George Town. In order to manage the time in a more effective manner, we felt that our tour guide should have accompanied us to the top of the Penang Hill. So, for the remainder of the tour we drove by the other historic sites. The only other stop we made was at a chocolate store which we could have done without.
