Baba and Nyonya is refer to the Straits-born Chinese are the descendants of Chinese immigrants who came to the Malay archipelago including British Malay and Dutch East Indies between the 15th and 17th centuries. So this mansion is owned by the Peranakan (Baba and Nyonya) family. This mansion show the unique lifestyle and the architecture which influence by Malay community and European.
2.Kek Lok Si Temple
Last time i post the food called "Penang Asam Laksa" in the place called "Pasar Air Itam", it is nearby the place called Kek Lok Si Temple, if you interested you can continue the journey to this place.
Kek Lok Si Temple is the biggest chinese temple in Malaysia. It located in Air Itam in Penang facing the ocean and impressive view, and is one of the best known temple on the island. The whole complex of this temple was worked over a period from 1890 to 1930.
During the Chinese New Year, the place is queue up with flowers, paper packets and red lanterns. At that time it will contain a lot of visitor to visit.
3.Penang Street Art
If you love art like me, how about visit the street art in Georgetown. Thanks to Ernest Zacharevic who done the marvelous job to bring a new life painting to some of the oldest buildings in Georgetown. The wall painting in Georgetown represents the characteristics and the lifestyle in the city. The painting is done during 2012. However, if you travel now to the street art, it may not visible because the painting started to fade away.
