This Chinese New Year in Penang...Blue Mansion

#ChineseNewYear2023 This Chinese New Year, go to Penang and see the world heritage city. Today, I would like to present the Blue Mansion, which is currently open to tourists for free. There is a restaurant and accommodation inside. You can visit the lobby and the courtyard, including the 2nd floor, which is like a museum that shows the story of the house, its history, restoration, and displays of ancient Chinese utensils. It is currently open as a boutique accommodation, but tourists are not allowed to enter this zone for the privacy of the guests. This mansion is the home of the tycoon Cheong Fatt Tze, who was a merchant and an important figure at that time. He was called the Rockefeller of Asia. This mansion was built using craftsmen from Fujian, southern China. After the death of his last descendant, it was left in a state of disrepair until a group of investors bought it and restored it for 6 years using craftsmen who were ordered directly from China until it was as beautiful as before and received an award from UNESCO. This place used to be a filming location for many movies and dramas, especially the story of the 7th wife, which was also made into a drama. Walk around and admire the beauty and architecture on both the upper and lower floors. Go to the bathroom and then walk to other world heritage buildings in Georgetown. Next, the capital of Penang
