Armenian Street Penang

Armenian Street is a narrow street within the city of George Town in Penang, Malaysia. Located within the city's UNESCO World Heritage Site, the road has gained popularity in recent years for its rich cultural offerings and street art. One of the handful of places in the world that was named after the nation-state of Armenia, Armenian Street was originally part of a Malay settlement. #yearofrabbit #newyearadventure #foodie #urbanexplorer

Armenian Street

Lebuh Armenian, or Armenian Street, is a street in the inner city of George Town and within the core zone of the George Town Unesco World Heritage Site. It derives its name from an Armenian family who once stayed at the junction of the now Lebuh Armenian and Lebuh Pantai in the early part of the 19th century. The street is the venue of the weekly Armenian Street Fair. Armenian Street has three pieces of street art. They include two murals by Ernest Zacharevic and two steel-rod sculptures based on caricatures by Tang Mun Kian. I call the murals "Little Children on a Bicycle" and "This Old Man", while the sculptures are called "Procession" and "Then & Now". Definitely a place to visit. You haven’t been in Penang until you visited Art street. #awesomepic #deliciousfood #foodie
