Chulia Lane, George Town

Chulia Lane, George Town (31 December 2012)


Chulia Lane is a minor road in the inner city of George Town, Penang. It runs in a northeast direction connecting Chulia Street to Stewart Lane. It also forms a junction with Market Lane.

Until the repel of the Rent Control Act and the subsequent inscription of the inner city as a World Heritage Site, the houses along Chulia Lane were largely neglected. This is no longer true, as commercial interest in inner city properties has been lifted by the inscription. As a result, a number of residential properties along Chulia Lane have been purchased to be turned into guesthouses, boutique hotels and restaurants. This is expected to continue in the immediate future.

About this website

Dear visitor, thank you so much for reading this page. My name is Timothy Tye and my hobby is to find out about places, write about them and share the information with you on this website. I have been writing this site since 5 January 2003. Originally (from 2003 until 2009, the site was called AsiaExplorers. I changed the name to Penang Travel Tips in 2009, even though I describe more than just Penang but everywhere I go (I often need to tell people that "Penang Travel Tips" is not just information about Penang, but information written in Penang), especially places in Malaysia and Singapore, and in all the years since 2003, I have described over 20,000 places.

While I try my best to provide you information as accurate as I can get it to be, I do apologize for any errors and for outdated information which I am unaware. Nevertheless, I hope that what I have described here will be useful to you.
