🎠 Malacca is an ancient cultural city Years of accumulation and sedimentation have enriched its cultural heritage 🎠 Just wandering around, you can see the traces of history Experience the feelings that Malay culture brings to us * 🏡 Dutch Red Square 🏡 The Red Square features Dutch-style architecture, with thick hardwood, iron chains, and stone walls making it solid and simple. A red house that is super photogenic for taking pictures. 📍 Address: Located near the city square in the center of town, opposite the Christ Church * 🛕 Malacca Strait Mosque 🛕 The Malacca Strait Mosque is built on the man-made Malacca Island. The mosque looks beautiful under the sunset glow, with the golden dome set against the setting sun.
