Thailand: The covered walkway, commonly known as a 'five foot way', that runs in front of the traditional Sino-Portuguese housefronts in Phuket old town

Having been influenced by migrant Chinese settlers from southern China, it shares a great deal with neighboring Straits Chinese settlements architecture in both the Malaysian cities of Penang and Melaka, and with Singapore.
