GEORGE TOWN: Thirteen more paintings are being drawn on a 50.3m stretch of wall along Magazine Road here, further cementing the image of the state capital as a city of murals.

The project, dubbed as the “Great Wall of Penang”, will depict the island in its older days and what it would look like in the future.
