Kinta Lane (or Lorong Kinta) is a rather small street in George Town that starts from Burmah Road to Macalister Road. The street is recognizable by its large furniture mall, Mekio, which is also converted from the old Rex cinema. A row of pre-war shophouses located along the street are now renovated to be a part of the ‘Penang Furnishing City’ in George Town.

Yet another wall mural painted by a local artist named Louis Gan. This mural depicts how people living on the second floor in the old days were getting their meal through a basket lifted out from the window of the house. This mural can be found at Kinta Lane, George Town.
