A street view showing Sun Yat Sen Museum shophouse (2nd from right).

This late 19th century house has an extraordinary historical link to Sun Yat Sen’s  life in Penang in the 1910s. Sun Yat Sen, one of the leaders of modern China, set up reading clubs across Singapore and Malaysia. This house was one such reading clubs. Today, it is known as Sun Yat Sen Museum and the attractive façade is restored with green walls, peranakan wall tiles and ‘chien-nien’ porcelain cuts forming birds and flowers.
