Penang | Sun Yat-sen Penang Base Memorial Hall, a key place that led to the Xinhai Revolution

#AprilGoodDestinations2025 We visited the Sun Yat-sen Penang Base Memorial Hall "Yu Rong Zhuang" located at 120 Ta Tong Street, where Sun Yat-sen stayed in Penang when he was raising funds in Southeast Asia. It was also the base that facilitated the success of the Father of the Nation's ten revolutions. The uprising of the "Xinhai Revolution" was planned in this small house in Penang, which is of great historical significance. This street house "Yu Rong Zhuang" was built around 1880. It is an architectural style popular during the British Straits Settlement period. The first floor is a shop and the second floor is a residence. It is a model of merchant residence. The house is long and narrow with three paths in total. Between each path there is a small patio garden for gathering wealth and energy. There are air vents for ventilation, exquisite solid wood stairs, floor tiles with beautiful patterns, old switches on the wall, and a traditional Nyonya kitchen, which has a very quaint flavor. The ticket for the Sun Yat-sen Penang Memorial Hall is RM10. It is strongly recommended to take a guided tour. It makes a real difference with the explanation, allowing people to better understand what happened in Nanyang during Sun Yat-sen's revolutionary era. It is highly recommended. #MalaysiaTourism #Penang #SunYatSenMaintenance
