About Baba & Nyonya Heritage Museum

This Peranakan townhouse on Jalan Tun Tan Cheng Lock, once known as Millionaires' Row, has belonged to the Chan family since the 19th century and opened as a museum in the mid-1980s. The family still runs it.

Rooms are kept as they were, with carved and gilded woodwork, heavy furniture and porcelain, showing how a wealthy Baba-Nyonya household lived before the Second World War.
