A visit to a Baba-Nyonya museum in Penang

These group of pictures taken recently when I was back home for Chinese New Year holidays. It is a typical home of a rich Baba of more than a century ago. Over 1000 pieces of antiques and collectibles are on display here in this stately mansion. It had once served as the residence and office of Kapitan Cina Chung Keng Kwee. All of them were taken with Nikon D70s, 18-70mm.
