Hi there everyone, it has been a long time i didn't update my blog. I myself also don't know why I'm suddenly in mood to update my blog. It was a visit to
The Pinang Peranakan Mansion quite a long time ago which was about in my semester one. By the way, I'm in semester two now.
The Peranakan, generally known as Babas and Nyonyas. Peranakans' culture is generally the combination of Chinese's and Malays' cultures. During last time, peranakans are mostly found in Malacca, Penang and Singapore which are all in the Straits Settlement. The purpose of Pinang Peranakan Mansion is to introduce the Babas' and Nyonyas' traditions to general public.
As what we can see in the above picture. Don't you feel they are familiar. Yes, you're right. These are all the movies and dramas which are captured here to record the Babas' and Nyonyas' background. For me, the famous one is ' The Little Nyonya (小娘惹) ' which was shown in Astro AEC 301 few years back.
The above picture show the dining hall of them. It was richly decorated with European-style. Some of the Babas' households even have a separate western-styled dining room meant for entertaining peers and European guests. The dinner service includes porcelain, glass and silverware, all imported from Europe.
The front door which is full with Chinese style.
In between, I saw a pair of couple taking their wedding pictures. How sweet they are. Hope they will be with each other forever as the traditions of Peranakans' culture last from last century until now.
Anyway, this is my first post in 2011. Hope I will continue in the mood of updating my blog. Stay in touch ya everyone.
