Marking George Town & Street Art, Day 1: Chew Jetty (2014, June 24)

Built by the clansmen of olden days, the clan jetties was segregated into distinct communities of Chinese people that arrived in George Town in search of a better future. Denoted by the clan surnames such as Chew, Tan, and Lee among others, the jetties were traditionally occupied by people of the surname and the descendants of which still occupy the homes which line the jetties to this day.

There are 7 jetties in particular:
Ong Jetty
Lim Jetty
Chew Jetty
Lee Jetty
New Jetty
Yeoh Jetty

And I happened to explore on of them: The Chew Jetty.
