Bincheng surname bridge

Located in Penang, Malaysia

The surname bridge in Penang is the earliest Chinese gathering place in Penang, and the older generation made a living by fishing. The houses here are simple but not humble, with creative murals painted outside. Houses are built on the sea, and the bottom is supported by wooden stakes. The street in the village is a bridge supported by wooden stakes and paved with wooden boards, which is a harmonious gathering place for families and boats.

Six of the original eight surname bridges have been demolished and have been included in the World Heritage List. At present, the largest bridge is Zhouxing Bridge, with about 60 families. There seems to be only one road on the bridge, which is similar to the main road. In fact, there are many forks in the road next to the aisle, and it is also a kind of house boat scenery to walk in. Others continue to engage in simple fishing and live a simple life. As soon as I entered the surname bridge, I felt temporarily isolated from the impetuous world outside, which was a little quiet in the downtown area. The village has a simple homestay and another personality. There is also a swallow vegetable cake, which is eaten with egg shells. Its taste is ordinary, but its form is full of characteristics. In addition, there are many delicious places near the surname bridge, and Asamlaksa with a cart opposite is very delicious.
