Penang 2014 – Street Art Hunt Part 1

We were in Penang last week for my sister’s wedding so I took the chance to hunt for some street art. There’s a map indicating where the murals are found and this map is available at the airport and also at some hotels. It was unbelievably hot and we were extremely exhausted from walking around. I strongly recommend getting a trishaw for the day or renting a bike for the street art hunt!

These are the pieces by Ernest Zacharevic. The one of two kids and a cat in a boat at Chew Jetty is almost completely weathered away but I didn’t know that so I walked all the way there for nothing. If only I’d read this particular blog post before my hunt!

    hey thanks for the link! Is Kungfu girl still there?? I walked all along that street in Feb 2014 and swear I couldn’t find her >_< Guess that's the beauty of street art, you just kinda chance upon stuff!

      I turned left after Trishaw Man, walked past the Modern Hotel and Kungfu Girl was just a short distance away. She’s definitely still there!
