Ennis is a 25-year-old young artist from Lithuania. He created a street artwork called "Mirrors Georgetown" for the George Town Festival 2012. The artwork consists of two sets of four pieces: one set combines murals and installations, including the bicycle siblings and the wind chasing boy, which are integrated into the surroundings for people to immerse themselves in; the other set is large-scale murals created on high walls, including the wall jumping girl and the skillful uncle. These artworks are carefully crafted and lifelike, allowing visitors to step into the scenes and experience the emotions within.

Penang Museum is a Nanyang-style museum, built in 1821 and originally a school. Located on Armenian Street, it is decorated with a statue of Francis Light and the original cable car from Penang Hill at the entrance. The museum houses a collection of antiques and heritage items related to various ethnic cultures, including currency issued by the Japanese colonial government during World War II, documents from the Japanese army, and graduation certificates from Japanese language schools. The nearby art gallery showcases different art styles.
In addition, outside the museum, there are the old flag-raising cable car from the colonial era and the official car of the state's head. According to legend, there are several indentations on the governor's official car caused by a gun attack, but whether this story is true or not cannot be verified. Penang Museum is the best starting point to learn about the rich cultural heritage of Penang.
