The trip to Melaka was an eye-opener. Melaka truly deserves its title as a heritage city. There is this sense of history as one strolls through the old quarter of the city. Of course there are the tourist traps like the crocodile farm etc etc but as locals, we avoided those.

I was taking pics from outside the fence when a gentleman came out of the church and invited us in to take pics from inside. He was so kind I felt a little embarrassed.

This chapel is awesome. There were people worshiping inside. The stained glass windows were simply beautiful. Underneath the church was a crypt but I thought it wouldn’t be good taste to take pics.

This is the famous Jonkers Street. The historical buildings have been restored and put into commercial use. The people are a pragmatic lot.

The trishaws added much color to the local scene.

Is that the St Francis Xavier church? Honestly, I have never went inside! I love Jonker Street – my favourite place in Melaka : )

hi..tourist trap??
i heard that in -ve side..huuh
melaka..really become tourist trap?
Diana: i hesitate to call it a tourist trap. It is indeed different from most other towns in Malaysia as it has a rich history. But as a tourist destination, it has to cater to a wide spectrum of tourists but to call it a tourist trap? I don’t quite agree
