When you come to Penang, the surname bridge is a place you can't miss. It is a must-see for you to learn about Penang and integrate into your local life. Everyone here builds the house on the sea, the bottom is supported by wooden stakes, and the households are connected by wooden boards. Because these people are connected to the sea and the land and they live together in a family of surnames, that’s why it is called the surname bridge. This is also the earliest gathering place for Chinese in Penang. Penang was once one of the most important seaports in Southeast Asia. With the demolition of some bridges, the surnames Lin surname Zhou, surname Chen, surname Li, surname Yang and different surnames are all included in the bridge. The world cultural heritage category has been protected. Zhouqiao, the largest surname, has more than a thousand residents. It is said that it monopolizes the right to buy and sell goods from Indonesia. The surname Li Bridge monopolizes merchant ships from China. The surname Chen and surname Yang Qiao are the main economic activities, mainly based on wood and charcoal. The film "First Love Red Bean Ice" was once shot here, and the artist Wu Qixian's home is also here.

When the sun comes out, Penang's mottled walls release rich colors. It is recommended to visit this place by foot. It is freer and more casual than riding a bicycle or riding a tricycle. The most joy is to go to a corner of the street and suddenly find a famous mural. The surprise is like turning out the candy from the closet. Although it takes a little effort, it is more fun to discover than to take a photo. A pot of flowers and a wall is a beautiful memory worthy of processing. But if you want to take all the murals in Penang, then it is almost impossible! Because there are too many new and old corners, you have to bring a parasol, and drink iced drinks all the way. Tips: It takes more than 3 hours to fly from Hong Kong to Penang. The visa can be Evisa, which you can get in advance. I can do it in one day, but there is a risk of refusal. I was given a Malaysian visa for the first time in my life.

After watching the film "The Rings of Lights" directed by Ang Lee, I will definitely be impressed by the old streets of Wang Lihong and Chen Chong who strolled between Ye Zuyi Building and the Tax Gate Bureau. The bell tower on the background is the famous old Guanzijiao clock tower on the streets of Penang. The Big Bell Tower, which stands in the old Guanzijiao, has a history of 104 years. This landmark building is a mixture of the English bell tower and the Muslim Moorish dome. It was established by the local Chinese businessman Xie Zengqi of Penang to commemorate the British. The 60th anniversary of Queen Victoria's accession to the throne. Although the clock tower is no longer a bell for the people, its historical value and commemorative significance are rich and far-reaching. As long as you are close to the Big Bell Tower, it is not difficult to find the English words on the wall of the clock tower that "this clock tower is donated by Xie Zengqi to Penang, and the Queen Victoria is enshrined in the memorial - 1837-1897". In 2005, the Urban Council allocated funds to beautify the office. In addition to adding neon lights to the big clock tower, the traffic circle in front of the big clock tower erected a giant iron betel nut with a strong local color. Under the latter, the big bell tower was even more Adding modernity, it quickly became another landmark for tourists to enjoy sightseeing. The old streets of Penang stand with old-fashioned buildings of European, Southern and South Sea flavors. The thick nights of Shanghai are still lingering, and the mottled walls have witnessed the traces of historical change and power.

Penang, Malaysia, named Zhouqiao As its name, the residents living here are all named Zhou, and the bridge is not really a bridge, just a wooden house built on the sea. Pangcheng's clan and fellowship are very heavy. In the area of Haitang Street in George Town, you can still feel the color of the family name. There is a surname Linqiao, surname Liqiao, etc. The largest, it has also become a tourist attraction. Now there are shops on both sides of the street. The wooden houses are painted with good-looking wall paintings, and it is still the location of "First Love Red Bean Ice". If you encounter a good weather, it is really beautiful. To go to the surname Zhouqiao, you can take the free bus CAT from Penang and get off at Weld Quay. It can be free to visit and open all day.

Penang's small travel resort | Khoo Kongsi There are many old mansions in Penang that have been forced to transform, some have become museums, and some have been developed into boutique hotels. The Longshantang Qiu Company, which is hidden in the alleys of the old city, has continued to this day. The descendants of Qius family are now shining all over the world. Their university degree certificates and industry achievements are full of several houses. Surprisingly, this magnificent Chinese-style ancient building is rarely known to Malay locals, and many foreign photographers come to visit. Longshantang has an amazing architectural beauty, extremely symmetrical layout and exquisite carvings and clay crafts. It is a dream place for architectural fans. On the last Saturday of each month and the special festival Longshan Hall will light up. From 6:30 to 10:00 in the evening, admission is free. For other days, if you want to go in, you will be charged MYR 10. Longshantang Qiu Company is the most special one among the Malaysian Chinese surnames. The Qiu clan is one of the "five major surnames" of Fujian people in Penang. It is an important blessing force in the early society with Xie, Yang, Lin and Chen. In the nineteenth century, the five major surnames set up company settlements in Chulia Street on the winter street of Georgetown, and in the south to the community street. Each company is centered on the ancestral hall and surrounds the street house belonging to the company on three or four sides. This kind of close, close and defensive settlement of the same name is very rare in immigrant society.

There are also four famous kings in Shantou Street: Xinyue Palace Tea Room, Shantou Street Four Fruit Soup, Emperor Chicken Feet Soup, and Shantou Street Quanji Duck Porridge. In fact, after I came here, I didn't specifically look for those stores. I personally think that everyone's tastes are different. In fact, the estimated taste of opening a store here is almost the same, but many people are chasing some people who have said that they have eaten before. This braised chicken feet is really delicious. It can be said that the entrance is instant, there is no need to bite, and the meat is gently sucked. You can eat it alone or with a prepared juice. Order a small portion, the price is about 4 dollars. Four fruit soup is also a must-have, with ice cubes, red beans, white fungus and so on. The taste is very good, it can be said that it is a must-have artifact for cooling off the heat. Exaggerated, exaggerated. In fact, many of the best people in the four-fruit soup are not the house of sugar house, but I personally think that the four-fruit soup is not only good, but the boss is very enthusiastic.

The streets of Penang are quaint and beautiful. The colonial architecture creates a beautiful setting for the dynamic Malaysian culture to exist. Penang is alive with art and food, a priority of the simple things, and enjoyment in life. #happynewyear
