About

Chowrasta Market is perhaps Penang's most well-known market. More than a century old, the dry market area downstairs (there's also a wet market at the back selling fresh seafood) sells all sorts of popular local delicacies such as fresh nutmegs, preserved fruits and the classic Ghee Hiang biscuits. The foodstuff sold here are said to be cheaper than anywhere else in Penang. Located one level up on the first floor is a much-loved second-hand bookseller where you can purchase used copies of favourite reads at a fraction of the original price.
