💙 Penang’s Blue Legend — The Jaw‑Dropping Cheong Fatt Tze Mansion

#summervacay Open the door to 1904, and step into a living masterpiece once owned by Cheong Fatt Tze, known as the “Rockefeller of the East.” This indigo-blue architectural wonder is one of Penang’s most striking Straits Chinese mansions. A seamless fusion of Imperial Chinese décor, Gothic stained glass, Art Nouveau ironworks from Scotland, and shimmering ceramic mosaics — built by craftsmen transported from China. #cheongfatttzemansion #bluemansionpenang #hiddengemspenang #straitschinesearchitecture #penangheritage #rockefelleroftheeast #unescoheritage #penangculturetrip #architecturalwonder #historicalmansion #georgetownmustsee #penangtravelinspo
