A rich lady at the Nyonya Museum

#February Good Places 2025 When you visit Penang, you must visit the Nyonya Overseas Students Museum, where you can learn a bit about Nyonya history and culture. It turns out that Nonya Baba is the descendant of Chinese and locals. The Nyonya Overseas Chinese Museum in Penang, ranked eighth among the must-visit museums in Asia! This private museum was renovated from an old house left by a large family in the past. It has a great-era house design. There are extremely luxurious furnishings, the crystallization of the merging of Chinese, Western and Malay cultures. A complete presentation of the past Chinese luxury in Southeast Asia. Rich collection, the standard of restoration is quite high! There will be explanations in Chinese and English every hour, and a 40-minute explanation tour will take you through every corner of the museum. In addition to showcasing the family's luxurious life, the five pavilions focus on the embroidery, craftsmanship, clothing, utensils, etc. behind the house, which are dazzling, beautiful, and very luxurious! You can rent a Nyonya costume to experience it, about HK$200 or so, many beautiful girls on site experience. The richness of the collection is definitely worth the price of admission, just shuttling through this mansion is completely a little Nyonya scene.
