Melaka - Post Report Question and Answers
What are some interesting/fun things to do in the area? Can you recommend any “hidden gems"?
Melaka is a very interesting city with nearly 500 years of colonial history. The history of Malaysia relates directly with the history of Melaka. The Portuguese, Dutch, and then the British colonized the country and have all left their mark/influence. There are about 15 museums worth seeing in the town center mostly about maritime, Malay, and colonial history. - Sep 2007
