Chinese New Year Open House at Masjid Cina Titi Papan, Penang

In Malaysia, a practice known as “open house” (rumah terbuka) is common during the festivities, especially during Hari Raya Aidilfitri, Deepavali, Chinese New Year, and Christmas. Open house means that all well-wishers are received and that everyone, regardless of background, is invited to attend. Free foods and gifts are prepared by the host.

Masjid Cina Titi Papan is a small mosque in the heart of George Town, Penang. As a mosque that many ethnic Chinese Muslims attend, Masjid Cina Titi Papan hosts a open house event every Chinese New Year.
