Campbell Street Market at night. This market is one of the earliest markets in the UNESCO World Heritage City of George Town. Although many George Town people have moved out and the youngsters prefer to go to the malls to buy raw food, this market is still as crowded as it used to be. Penangites still choose this old market besides than the nearby Chowrasta Market. This market which was built in around 1900 does not only served as a market but also as a melting pot of the multi-culturalism and symbol of unity and harmony in Penang. It's a good thing that it's being preserved and it should remain that way. Heritage and development can co-exist.
This market is also known as 'Sin Keh' in the local Hokkien dialect.
