Today, we want to story about City Hall which is one of the memorial hall in Penang. City Hall is the most magnificent colonial building in Georgtown. It was build in 1903 with Edwardian Baroque architectural design and painted white of the entire building. This building has brought back some political memory especially the controversy over city status. On 1st January 1957, Queen Elizabeth II had granted  Georgetown as the first city statue in the Federation of Malaya. Today, this building continues to be used as the administrative office of local council.
