Cheong Fatt
Tze As a UNESCO heritage site, George Town is rife with historic buildings, and the Cheong Fatt Tze Mansion is one of them.

This century-old building is a symbol of love of the wealthy Chinese businessman whom the mansion was named after for his beloved wife. However, the mansion fell into disrepair when the owner passed away. It was not until Laurence Loh, an earnest institution behind award-winning restorations in Malaysia, took up the challenge to bring back the heyday of the Cheong Fatt Tze Mansion.
