Cheong Fatt Tze Mansion
PDF  |
Built in the 1880s, this famous indigo-blue Chinese Courtyard House in Georgetown was the residence of Cheong Fatt Tze, a prominent Chinese figure during the 19th century. The mansion was built by master craftsmen brought in from China, who used their skills to fashion the mansion with 38 rooms, 5 granite-paved courtyards, 7 staircases, and 220 windows. In 2000, the Cheong Fatt Tze mansion received the inaugural Unesco Asia-Pacific Heritage Conservation Award, selected as the 'Most Excellent Project' in the Asia Pacific Rim following its RM7.6 milllion restoration works. |
