In the heart of Malacca’s old town, a home-turned-museum invites you to step into history and imagine what life used to be like for a Peranakan Chinese family behind these walls.

A hidden gem in the heart of George Town, Leong San Tong Khoo Kongsi stands as the grandest clan temple of its kind in Southeast Asia.

The Peranakan way of life comes alive in Penang, where you can immerse yourself in the beauty of its ornate mansions, the serenity of its spiritual sanctuaries, and the bold flavours — and colours — of its traditional cuisine.
