Penang Georgetown Shopping

Penang is a Far East warehouse for everything imaginable, from electronic gadgets to plastic toys. Chinese ceramics and other goods, silks from Thailand and India, plus simple fabrics for less expensive sarees, tech gear from Japan and China, Malaysian and Indonesian handicraft and textiles plus jewelry of every kind and style. Jalan Pinang is the main shopping bazaar, shops open in the early morning and close around midnight.

Lebuh Campbell, just off Jalan Pinang, is the main "Chinese" shopping centre where Nepalese street vendors sell Chinese made shirts, fake alligator-skin shoes, and precious stones of the cut glass type. Probably the most exciting shopping in Georgetown is in the many "junk" shops along Rope Walk. Here, shoppers must literally climb over of discarded gear. Those who do not mind getting their hands dirty probably will discover some hidden treasure. If you like to do it as locals do visit pasar minggu or pasar malam (weekly market or night market). These are temporary markets of

the same kind as in Thailand and other south east Asian countries which are just erected on some open space with the help of metal pipes fixed together and some plastic sheets. This markets are called pasar mutant and they move every day to another location which is very convenient to them because often they sell junk and coming back the next day to have the junk replaced wont work, they are gone.
