Cheong Fatt Tze Mansion

#summervacay The Cheong Fatt Tze Mansion, also known as The Blue Mansion, is one of George Town, Penang’s most iconic heritage landmarks—distinctive for its vibrant indigo-blue façade and rich blend of cultural design. Built between 1897 and 1904 by Cheong Fatt Tze, a Chinese merchant and diplomat known as “the Rockefeller of the East,” the mansion served as both his residence and business headquarters. Designed with 38 rooms, 5 granite-paved courtyards, 7 staircases, and 220 timber louvre windows, the mansion is an exquisite example of Straits Chinese Eclectic architecture. #travel #couplestrip
