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".
Attractions
There is a lot to do in Malacca with modern shopping malls, nightspots for entertainment and a culinary diversity second to none in Malaysia. More than a historical state, Malacca boasts of two charming island resorts, as well as beautiful beaches at Pulau Besar, Pulau Upeh, Klebang, Tanjung Bidara, Tanjung Kling and Pantai Kundur.
Shopping
Malacca is best known for its antique shops along Jonkers Street (Jln Hang Jebat). Other items of interest may include local handicrafts, batik and pewter, leather goods, electronics, watches and jewelry.
Currency
The currency used is called the Ringgit Malaysia (RM).
