There is street art on a huge scale in Georgetown, Malaysia. After an artist was commissioned to do some murals in 2012, it seems to have become a thing. I enjoyed following the numbered map to find the pieces of art. I like the fact that some of them were a mixture of 2D and 3D work.
The cartoon style ones made out of metal were also interesting; depicting the history and aspects of the town’s life. My only quibble is that it would be good if the art could be maintained. In places I had to avoid burnt out cars, building works, vehicles parked in front and just the general effect of wear and tear of the weather on paint and metal. It would be a shame if the fabulous artwork was lost.
The Chinese shop houses in rows, the old Chinese clan dwellings and the colonial mansions through out the old town are also very interesting to see. George Town is a good place just to wander and see where you end up.
