Penang Heritage Places One Day Walk(Part 1)

It's been a long time I dint update my blog. Well, busying with school stuff and my homework of course. School first test had just over two weeks ago, everyone seem not really satisfied with their result, I'm the only one. Although test is easy as you expected, but my result still bad. Not to talk that first, last holiday which means the March holiday that just over, our school tourism club just organized a 'Heritage Walk' at this small Penang Island.
We went to Armenian Street(铜仔) to explore the cultural enclave, with historical attractions and galleries in the heart of the George Town World Heritage Site. What we went is SUN YAT SEN Penang Base(孙中山mǎ lái xī yà de dì qū');">槟城基地).
The indoor view of the base that he made visit to Penang.
These thing are in the Nyo-Nya Kitchen.
The abacus that they used last time, we replace it with using calculator nowadays. Besides, there is the safety box that they use to keep 8000 1/4 sens. Amazing right? The safety box need 8 adults to carry to some places.
Inside of the security box.
The next station, we moved on to Leong San Thong Khoo Kongsi.
We have to buy ticket before we get into there. Let's explore the mysterious and profound Chinese temple.
Did you see there is one coin stuck into the crack? Yeah, last time's people use to stuffed the coins into it, but unfortunately, they steal all the coins and left one here in the crack of the stone staircase.
This is where they placed their ancestries here at the Khoo Kongsi. Only the person that get graduated at any university and with the first name of Khoo, their name can be placed at here, but is only boys allowed. Part 2 will be continued on the next post article.
