George Town UNESCO World Heritage Site

On 7th July 2008, George Town and Melaka were inscribed together as a World Heritage Site validating their outstanding ‘cultural heritage’. Georgetown is the capital of the state of Penang and it is located on the north-east corner of Penang Island. The charm of Georgetown's streets is found in the intimate relationship between the monuments and the buildings of ordinary people.
