The Georgetown area of Penang has been declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site. What this means is that buildings inside the designated zone cannot be torn down and turned into high rise malls. What it doesn’t mean is that the place has become some sort of museum. There are some fancy restored houses dotted around, but most of the area remains a place of working shophouses and street markets; and people.
