Malaysia | Colorful Nanyang style, fall in love with Malacca at first sight

Malacca is a name familiar to everyone, as the Strait of Malacca was mentioned in textbooks since childhood. As an important part of the cultural heritage of West Malaysia, Malacca has witnessed history and carries many stories and memories. Here, one can still see architectural styles from China, the Netherlands, Portugal, Britain, and Malaysia. Growing up on the old streets with arcades, the Nanyang style of Malacca is like an old dream, yet so vivid. · 【Travel Guide】 There are no direct flights from China to Malacca, but tickets can be purchased at the Kuala Lumpur bus terminal TBS (Terminal Bersepadu Selatan) or online (🔍redbus), costing about 11RM. · 【Historical City Tour】 Jonker Street→Strait Cultural Museum→Cheng Ho Cultural Museum→Dutch Square→Malacca River→St. Paul's Church→St. John's Fort→Sultanate Palace→Mosque on the Straits 1. Touring the old city of Malacca, you can dress up in Nyonya/Baba attire for a Citywalk, or take a unique trishaw heritage tour. Makeup and costume rental at RC Hotel Colour Nyonya House, 48RM for 3 hours including a set of clothes, headgear, and props. 2.
