This place is a stopover for my cruise. My family and I were immersed by the beautiful culture, and even bought some gifts relating to the bicycle street art to gift our friends :) I also bought this cute bag that resembles Duffy & Friends from Japan. Highly recommended!

The Peranakans, also known as the Babas and Nyonyas, was a prominent community of acculturated Chinese unique to this part of the world, especially in the Straits Settlements (Penang, Malacca and Singapore) hence its other name, the Straits Chinese. Adopting selected ways of the local Malays and later, the colonial British, the Peranakans had created a unique lifestyle and customs which had not only left behind a rich legacy of antiques but its cultural influences like cuisine and language are still evident in Penang today.

Penang Airport landed, took the bus to Georgetown to drop off, first stroll to the surname bridge. This area is by the sea, very close to Jetty Bas Terminal. High-footed wooden houses built by the sea, wooden piles hit the silt on the shore, and wooden houses built in the coastal areas form the road between houses. When the tide is high, the seawater submerges the silt and walks on the wooden rows, below is the sea. Among the many surname bridges in Penang, the "surname Zhouqiao" is well maintained and the most famous. The architectural age of "surname Zhouqiao" is in the 19th century, with a total length of more than 300 meters, and there are nearly 80 families. There are also many bridges surnamed Linqiao, surnamed Chenqiao, and surnamed Liqiao around Zhoushiqiao. These wooden plank roads are first in the offshore neutral pile, first for wood, later changed to cement columns, piles on the wooden plank, wooden beams on the house. Every wooden stake here, every rope, is a witness to history. There are shops selling crafts and drinks on both sides of the wooden road, along the wooden road to the coast, sunny weather fishermen will go fishing here, here continue the drift and struggle of generations of Chinese.

Love Lane is located in Macau, named in 1835, and its Portuguese expression is a desire and respect for religion, while the Chinese name reveals a romantic atmosphere of love. The houses in the lane are built on the hillside, around the beginning of the twentieth century. The houses in the lanes are a mix of neoclassical and modernist architectural styles. After the renovation, the pink, blue and yellow buildings are fresh and romantic.

Check in at Lebuh Queen(Queen Street), Little India is nearby, Little India is the Indian shopping and dining district, mainly concentrated in Lebun Pasar and Lebun King, all Indian shops. I started from Super OYO 998 Queen City, walked through several blocks, and went to Lebun Penang. Many street shops have business services such as men's and women's clothing shoes and hats, luggage department stores, flowers, catering, etc. Although I did not enter the store, but after several streets, many stores will play music, solicit customers, full of Indian style.

Mountains

In Jetty Bas Terminal, taking the bus to the tourist distribution center under the mountain, directly to the window to buy tickets and take the cable car up the mountain is the most convenient way to travel, helping me save a lot of climbing time. There are ice cream sales on the mountain, as well as restaurants, amusement parks and many observation decks. Standing on the top of the mountain, you can enjoy the charm of the natural scenery, overlooking the Georgetown port terminal, Penang Bridge and city construction. Banner Mountain (Malay Bukit Bendera; Penang Chinese call it Banner Mountain; English Penang Hill means Penang Mountain) is located in the north-central Penang, the main peak is 821 meters above sea level. During British rule, senior officials lived here, and soldiers under the mountain used the flag to convey an important message, calling the mountain The flag-raising mountain, which is the origin of the name of the flag mountain. It is a common way to travel down the mountain by cable car. The first cable car was officially launched in 1923 until 1977. The new cable car was introduced from Switzerland from 1977 to 2010. The new cable car, which is now in use, was officially launched in May 2011, with speeds of up to 10 km per hour and up to the top of the mountain in four minutes. In September 2021, Penang, Malaysia, was listed as a UNESCO Biopark Reserve, becoming the third region in the country to receive this award.
