Melaka Things to Do Tips by shivan

A Windmill

Signs of colonization are everywhere. A windmill in South eastern Asia!!

A strange contradiction here between local traditions and european intervention.

Who's this house?

I don't want to know, actually...

To be honest, anyway, I can't remember if this was someone's house or a museum...

Thank me for my honesty

The entrance

The fortress entrance. Walls are not in good condition, maybe because of the weather and sea proximity.

I don't know how long it will resist without proper restoration

The portuguese fort

This is a portuguese fort in Melaka, maybe the main attraction here, a 100% must see

Admission is free and it definitely deserves a visit

An ancient vessel

It seemed to me to be in the Netherlands, apart from the terrible hot!

This has been the hottest place I visited not counting Dubai

Religion

Idols statues in the gardens of the temple of which I showed the entrance in the Intro pic.

As usual in these places, traditions mix themselves the modernity
