Chew Jetty, located on George Town’s waterfront in Malaysia, is the largest of the clan jetties that once formed an old Chinese settlement on Penang. Elevated wooden boardwalks link stilt houses, creating a unique and bustling community. Visitors can explore the narrow pathways, browse through stores for souvenirs, and savor local snacks. The jetty’s blend of homes, temples, and fishing boats offers a glimpse into the area’s rich history and vibrant, lived-in atmosphere.
