Lorong Jeti Street Art

Lorong Jeti Street Art is an open-air street art hub situated along Jalan Tunku Yaakub, near the jetty and river area in Alor Setar town. What was once an ordinary lane has been transformed into an eye-catching art gallery that draws both tourists and locals alike. Each mural here tells its own story — some depict traditional Kedah crafts, others showcase local flora and fauna such as the egrets that have become the state's symbol, and some carry messages about the rich Sultanate heritage. The vibrant colours on these walls have given new life to an urban space that previously went unnoticed. Kedah, known as the "State of the Pepper Islands," has a long history of trade and arts. Lorong Jeti Street Art serves as a platform for the younger generation to express their appreciation for this heritage through contemporary art. This art showcase is not only great for photography but also serves as a community space for conversation and art appreciation. For the best experience, visit the lane in the late afternoon when the sunlight is softer and the mural colours appear more vivid. Don't forget to bring a camera to capture moments against these Instagram-worthy art walls. Located within Alor Setar's town centre, it is easily accessible by car or taxi.
