f, after visiting a spa, you feel refreshed, relaxed and fulfilled, then how about giving
a good pampering to your favourite bags and shoes accessories that have been
your best friends for a while and that need a touch up and some TlC? Dont they at
least deserve the same treatment?
Bags, shoes and accessories are not merely objects: for many of us they have an intangible value. Some bags bring confidence to the holders; some might be the first theyve
ever owned or the first they gripped nervously in a first-time club experience. Or maybe
those shoes were the first-ever gift you received from a loved one. You simply cant put
a price on accessories like these. In the past the only place for reliable fashion TlC was
Bangkok or even abroad, now all that has changed.

Khoo Kongsi
hen the first immigrants from the Hokkien province of China arrived in Penang,
one of the first things they set out to do was build one of the most magnificent clan
houses in Penang. Work began on the clan house in the 1890s which resulted in
what was said to be a palace which rivalled that of the Emperor of China. As the
story goes, this extravagance incurred the wrath of the Gods and on the first night of the clan
houses completion, an unexplainable fire broke out and burnt the house down! It wasnt until
1902 that the current clan house began construction.
One of five clan houses still standing in Georgetown, the Khoo Kongsi clan house takes on a
remarkable resemblance to a mini clan village. One of the grandest clan houses in Penang, the
Khoo Kongsi features tall thin columns supporting a gently sloping, red tiled roof, topped with
carvings of dragons, phoenixes, mythical animals and various scenes from popular Chinese
legends.
The clan house also has a grand hall adorned with resplendent and intricate carvings and richly
ornamented pillars which are said to have been crafted by master craftsmen from China. Other
major Hokkien clan houses that can be found in Penang are the Cheah Kongsi, Yeah Kongsi,
Lim Kongsi and Tan Kongsi.

he Kuan Yin Temple was built in the 1800s by early Chinese settlers of the Hokkien and Cantonese communities.
The temple was originally named Kong Hock Keong temple
(Cantonese-Hokkien Temple) and was once used not only for
religious but also for social functions within the Chinese community.
However, the temple lost some of its importance when the current
Chinese Town Hall was constructed in the 1880s.
The Goddess of Mercy Temple, or Kuan Yin Temple, is the first temple
ever built in Georgetown, Penang, by Chinese settlers. The temple
honours Kuan Yin, a devout Buddhist who was said to have attained
the coveted state of Nirvana but had chosen instead to remain on
earth in order to provide guidance and help to those who are themselves striving to reach Nirvana. The temple interior is usually filled
with the scent of sandalwood incense, burnt by devotees who visit the
temple to pray and seek guidance from Kuan Yin.
The temple also honours Ma Chor Poh, the patron saint of seafarers,
who was highly regarded by the Chinese settlers, many of whom had
travelled great distances, crossing the seas from China to Penang.
Enjoy the temples many beautiful features like the dragon-entwined
pillars, carved from a type of green stone, which support the temples
high roof. Also look for the statue of Kuan Yin, located in an inner
chamber, which depicts a woman with 18 arms, who has a countenance which exudes inner peace and worldly contentment.
