My Melaka Trip 2015

   Hello everybody! Yesterday i just came back from 2 day 1 night trip in Malacca. It was an awesome and memorable trip with my family members (my mother, my sister and including my uncle's family as well).

   Before beginning, let's briefly talking about Malacca. Malacca is a small state that located at the southern part of Peninsular Malaysia (obviously we as a malaysian knew about it...). It is basically used about 2 hours to travel there (Malacca city center) from Kuala Lumpur (3-4 hours if the highway is jammed). Ok, actually Malacca has vast histories, cultures for us get to know about (if you are malaysian, obviously you may already know about it.). We learn about that the sultanates of the other states in Peninsular Malaysia are originated from Malaccan Sultanate (Kesultanan Melayu Melaka) around 13-14 century. Therefore, our country's sultanates are heavily influenced by it. In 13-14 century, Malacca was also an enormous entrepot port (pelabuhan enterpot) located in Malacca Strait which draws a variety of merchants from different countries trading and staying here. This form an unique cultures in Malacca as they forming settlement here. One of the examples is the Peranakan Baba Nyonya culture (a race that interracial mix between Chinese and Malay) also available here as well.

   After that, let's view my journey in these photos:
