The heritage streets of George Town are dotted with antique dealers, art galleries, craft studios and design shops housed in restored shophouses, selling everything from Peranakan collectibles and batik to prints, ceramics and handmade souvenirs. Browsing these independent stores between the street art and clan houses is a pleasure in itself. The area is the best place in Penang to find unique crafts, artworks and gifts that reflect the citys rich multicultural heritage.
