1 Research:
The Baba Nyonya Heritage Museum, at No.48 - 50, JalanTun Tan Cheng Lock, is the ancestral home of three generations of a Straits-born Chinese Baba family. The building is converted into a stunning museum that preserves the unique legacy of the Babas since 1896. Now its owner is Chan Chin Swee.
When we arrived is about 10.30am. Its not allow take photo, but we take some when we go toilet.
After that we start our short guide. A women wearing a baju kebaya start to introduce all the things inside this house with her robot sound. And some question she also can't answer. Then I just watch myself and come back just research online.
Before this research, i had heard baba nyonya culture. But I more interesting about their wedding. Is there any Taboo of their wedding? What rule they need to follow? etc.
so i do some research and i found this:
This is a Nyonya Wedding Video, from here i found that the bride is cover a black cloth on her head. This is not same to our red cloth. And there also have a way to open the cloth.
Beside this there also have a link that told us more detail:

The Babas combine Chinese and Malay culture, a result of marriages between early Chinese settlers and local Malay women. Over the years, a distinct culture called the Baba Nyonya or Peranakan culture emerged.
