It have been changing a lot since I visited Malacca 10 years ago and Malacca is a great place to visit. I hope I can come back here again to taste the food here.
Last year Malacca was inscribed as UNESCO Cultural World Heritage Sites. The influences of Asia and Europe have endowed Malacca towns with a specific multicultural heritage that is both tangible and intangible. With its government buildings, churches, squares and fortifications, Melacca demonstrates the early stages of this history originating in the 15th-century Malay sultanate and the Portuguese and Dutch periods beginning in the early 16th century.
Among the famous historical places in Malacca is the The Stadthuys which was the official residence of the Dutch Governor.
You will also find the Christ Church built in 1753 here, another fine example of the Dutch architecture.
Another attraction here in Malacca town is the trishaw.
St. Francis Xavier's Church was built in 1849 by a frenchman, Reverend Farve. The Gothic towered church is dedicated to St. Francis Xavier, well-remembered for his missionary work spreading Catholicism.
On top of St. Paul's Hill is the St. Paul's Church.
St. Paul's Church once was the prayer house of the Portuguese Catholics.
After the Portuguese captured Melaka, they built a fortress to defend themselves.
The fortress, called A'Famosa suffered severe destruction during the Dutch invasion.
What's left today is just the entrance walls, still well preserved till today.
