Highlights
A short drive south from the Malaysian capital and Malacca welcomes you with open arms. Once a stronghold and an important trading station for the Portuguese, Dutch, British and Japanese with its direct location along the Malacca Strait, Malacca’s historical values are earmarked for finding some amazement for a full day of exploring a UNESCO World Heritage Site-recognized part of Malaysia. The prominence and cultural appeal, alongside the earlier-mentioned trading centre for the past centuries, will captivate visitors as we explore the town from all corners.
Itinerary
Red Square (Dutch Square)
45 minsAdmission Ticket IncludedCustomers are welcomed by an English-speaking driver-cum-guide (supplements apply for a private guide) who warmly greets you at your downtown Kuala Lumpur hotel. We may encounter some traffic in the morning, but within no time, your driver will head southbound towards Malacca as he/she will explain of what may come while you enjoy the view of the local side of the country. Depending on traffic conditions, the drive will take approximately 1.5 hours before we reach Malaysia’s former port and trading post along the shores of the Malacca Strait. One of the most recognized sites in Malacca is the Dutch Square with its characteristic, pink-coloured Stadthuys, a reminder of the Dutch colonial influences, and one of the main reasons Malacca received UNESCO protection in 2008.Cheng Hoon Teng Temple
