What people say

"Chew Jetty, part of the Clan Jetties of George Town, is a fascinating waterfront community that offers a unique cultural experience. This historic settlement, built on stilts over the water, is home to the descendants of Chinese immigrants who arrived in Penang over a century ago. Visitors can stroll along the wooden walkways, admire the traditional wooden houses, and explore the various shops and food stalls offering local delicacies. The jetty also features a temple dedicated to the sea goddess Mazu. Chew Jetty provides a charming glimpse into the maritime heritage and community life of Penang."
