Rumah Penghulu Abu Seman

TIME : 2016/2/17 14:55:10

This glorious wooden stilt-house was built in stages between 1910 and the 1930s and later moved to the grounds of Badan Warisan Malaysia . You can wander around outside tour times (and since it's built with ventilation in mind, you can easily look in). Check out the stunning handcarved canoe under the house. The boat was used in religious ceremonies in Kelantan and has the head of a fantastic-looking bird carved into the prow.

Normally three-dimensional images are prohibited in Islam but loopholes exist if the animal is considered mythological.
