Muntri Street: Penang Goldsmith Association
Penang Ta Kam Hong (or translated as Penang Goldsmith Association) is the oldest Chinese goldsmith association in Malaysia which was founded in the 1800s at Muntri Street, George Town. Most of its goldsmith members are of Cantonese descent and they generally worship Wu Ching, the patron deity of goldsmiths within the association’s guild temple.
The large art mural of the ‘Girl in Blue’ drawn by Ernest Zacharevic can be found on the side wall of a neighboring house of the association.

Green Hall Street: Kaffa Espresso Bar
A newly established cafe at Green Hall Street, Kaffa Espresso Bar joins a myriad of such similar cafes which are opening all over George Town in recent years. Kaffa Espresso Bar provides a retro-like and cozy ambiance while serving nice food (such as Big Bites All-Day Long Breakfast Platter) and coffee. The cafe’s official website is http://www.mykaffa.com/ and the cafe opens 8am – 10pm from Monday to Sunday.
Note: Kaffa Espresso Bar is not to be confused with the Kaffa Kafe at Straits Quay or China Street.
Penang Street Art (A Minion Hydrant)
A painting of a minion on a wall beside a fire hydrant along Ah Quee Street. Possessing no significant cultural or heritage value related to George Town, to some, this ‘art’ begs the question whether it is an art or rather a vandalism act.
