Cheong Fatt Tze Mansion

Penang Bee went to Cheong Fatt Tze Mansion - Blue Mansion this week. Cheong Fatt Tze Mansion is the Last Mandarin and First Capitalist of China in Penang. And, today this building conservation is perfectly. If you don't believe me, please look to below picture.

 Cheong Fatt Tze Mansion is totally a tradition chinese mansion in Georgetown. The architectural of the building is design to chinese religion, belief, and living style. Many Feng Shui knowledge use in this building too.

An idea of this building is about a Chinese business man who travel along the world built this mansion for his wife and children in this island, a presentative of love to his family.

Although the building is now taking over by a business man, but conservation to this building is totally impressive. Even, portait of Cheong Fatt Tze himself was still hanging on the living room.


To me, a entrance fees at RM 12 is worth for the money because the mansion's tour is provide a good service and tell excellent story about  this building to all comer. I had gone inside, and how about you?

Step by step lane

It is glad to tell you that Penang just add in a new wall mortal. It remind me that I used to stand on swing, although I was alone on that moment. 

But, less and less children are going to playground nowaday. Education has fill up their time, playground has fill by gangster.

I think this is the reason the paint is in Step by Step lane, Georgetown, Penang. If you are interested to take this picture. Just let us know.

Nine Emperor Gods Celebration in Penang

We were there at last Tuesday for nine emperor gods celebration. It was very crowded. This day become a very important tradition day to Penanglite, that we used to be vegetarian for at least one day, instead to make ourself one of those member to celebrate this pray.

On that day, many tourists keep flashing on those volunteer who sting themselves for the god. It was surprise after the celebrations end. And we keep staring on those volunteer, but they look fine, and there are not any injuries on their mouth.

We are happy staying beside this ship and asking friend to take picture for us.
