Christ Church

I have been to Melaka for few times since the first visit in 1993. Malacca’s appeal lies in its rich and colorful past. Its 600 years of history is reflected in its ancient buildings, intriguing streets, delectable cuisine and unique cultural heritage. Firmly rooted as Malaysia’s historical city, visiting Malacca is like a journey back in time to witness the adventures and discoveries during Malacca’s golden age. Today, there are many historical sites to visit that give you a glimpse of Malacca’s glorious past. This is balanced with other modern attractions such as water theme parks and cultural parks.

This bright red Christ Church stands between the Stadthuys and the old GPO building. The pink bricks were brought out from Zeeland in Holland and faced with local red laterite when the church was constructed in 1753.
