Cheong Fatt Tze Mansion, Art Nouveau mansion in George Town, Malaysia.

The indigo-blue mansion displays 38 rooms, five granite courtyards, seven staircases, and 220 timber louvre windows across two floors.

Built in the late 19th century, the mansion served as both the private residence and business headquarters of merchant Cheong Fatt Tze.

The structure incorporates Chinese Imperial architectural elements with European features, including Gothic windows, porcelain details, and stained glass decorations.

The mansion functions as an 18-room hotel and museum, offering three daily English tours and housing the Indigo restaurant.

Water channels flow from the roof through the ceiling and walls into the central courtyard, following traditional Feng Shui principles.
