In between the vertical floods of the Monsoon rains I walked through Chinatown, the Colonial District from the time of the British occupation including Fort Cornwallis, Little India and the Arabic Bazaar. George Town • Penang is a very multicultural city since the time of its founding 200 years ago. The interesting collection of historical buildings reflects the island's various ethnicities: Chinese, Indians, Arabs, Malays, Siamese, Burmese and Europeans. All living together in one melting pot...!
Zwischen den vertikalen Fluten des Monsun-Regens schaffte ich es doch mir Chinatown, das Kolonialviertel aus der Zeit der britischen Besetzung mit der Festung Cornwallis, Little India und den arabischen Basar anzuschauen
. George Town • Penang ist eine sehr multikulturelle Stadt seit ihrer Gruendung vor 200 Jahren. Die unterschiedlichen historischen Gebaeude representieren den kulturellen Einfluss der verschiedenen ethnischen Gruppen auf der Insel: Chinesen, Inder, Araber, Malayen, Siamesen, Burmesen und Europaeer. Und das macht die Stadt so interessant!
