Malaysia 🇲🇾 Blue House Walk into the time tunnel and experience contemporary life

#FebruaryGoodPlaces2025 #PenangMalaysia #BlueHouse The former residence of Zhang Fatt Tze in Penang, Malaysia is affectionately called the "Blue House" because of its bright indigo blue exterior. This historic mansion is similar to the Overseas Chinese Museum which is also located in Penang. Its architectural design style gives us a glimpse into the former prominence and prosperity of the Zhang Bishi family. The tour guide introduced that Zhang Bishi's former residence covers an area of ​​more than 50,000 square meters and has as many as 38 rooms. It is the largest existing Chinese garden residence in Malaysia. Wandering through it, you can not only appreciate the exquisite traditional architecture and gorgeous decorative details, but also feel the lifestyle of the wealthy Chinese businessmen of that time. In addition, many tourists rent Nyonya costumes and take pictures in this mansion that is full of traces of time. Walking through the quaint corridors, it feels like embarking on a journey through time, returning to the gorgeous oriental dream of the early twentieth century.
