Details About Malacca
Destinations » Asia » Southeast Asia » Malacca
Echoes of Portuguese, Dutch and British occupations resound amid the centuries-old fortresses and churches of this historic city. Its location put it right in the center of the silk and spice trades, and whoever ruled this port controlled formidable wealth. Today Malacca is simply a treasure to explore. Visit the Chinese Cheng Hoon Teng Temple, the Malacca museum and the renowned ´stadthuys´ built by the Dutch. As you wander down twisting alleys and narrow streets, you´ll find much of the "Old Asia".
