Lee Jetty is located at 57-58 Pengkalan Weld, 10300 Georgetown, and it is around 550 meters 7 minutes walk from Weld Quay Jetty Bus Terminal.
The clan jetties of Penang were originally built by the Chinese Hokkien immigrants from the Fujian province of China in the 19th century, these settlements on stilts along Weld Quay are now over a century old. Lee Jetty is one of the shortest among the clan jetties in Georgetown.
As for Lee Jetty, most of the houses are occupied by the local residents, lesser crowds and less commercialized, so it is much more peaceful and quiet.
Baosheng God of Health is their ancestral deity that is house in their temple Kim Aun San Si.
