Telok Bahang

Telok Bahang is a friendly fishing villlage in the north western tip of the island Penang. The name
Telok Bahang means the "Bay of Heat Wave",probably pointing to the high temperature of the sea breeze coming in to the shore.It's 5 kilometres distance from a touristy place of Batu Ferringhi.Telok bahang used to be famous for his fish restaurant " The End of THe world," but the restaurant was destroyed by the Tsunami.

120 Armenian Street is a shophouse build in the 1870's that has witnessed surprising events that shape world history.While it may appear stark compareed to the ornate architecture of the clan temples down the street, it is a house that is worth documenting. While it looks like a typical George Town shophouse, the things that happened in it is anything but typical.(Let's visit the house for more..........)
