Cycling in Penang Street Arts and Chew Jetty

This is more like cycling for convenient than cycling to exercise. (Eat to live or live to eat). However I still break sweat so shall consider this good exercise.
We set off early morning around 830 am. I heard your voice.... So early able rent a bicycle? Bicycle rental service is available as early as 7 am.

Around Georgetown, you can see bicycle highlighted to aware vehicles of  cyclists around. It still our duty to watch out and cycle carefully. It always better to wear brighter top and remember cycle as close to the left bicycle lane as possible. You can request for a Street Art map (below), but i am sure you will be given. The friendly owner may even draw and guide you to most of the art work. 


This FREE walkabout tour is organize for visitors to Penang. You can check with your hotel. Some of the places of interest are highlighted. 

You will be given bicycle lock for renting the bicycle. It is at very affordable price. 

Below are most of those Master Art i found at Georgetown. It's fun searching for them. At the same time, we exercise, appreciate the town and enjoy Penang local cuisines. 
Let's start with this "Upside Down" museum. 

Many of these memorable arts are drawn by Ernest Zacharevic, a young Lithuania-born artist, as part of George Town Festival 2012. One of them is this "Boy on a Bike" (Kid on a bicycle)

"Kissing the cat" - name by me :)

Heard this is one of the latest Art piece. It took us quite awhile to find this piece.
Namaste! The lady look so real.


Is he Malaysian soccer star? 

My bicycle was rented outside the shop facing this colorful tree. The owner was extremely helpful, even provided mineral bottle water & map, and took time to guide us where were those art works. 

How was my pose with Lee Xiao Long? Did i do better compare to when i cycling at Hong Kong


This Chew Jetty not far away (map above). You will have to lock and walk in. 



It look so beautiful but will i love staying here for life? What are villages doing every day? 
Are they more united than those staying in tall flats? Are they healthier and happier?
