Leisure: One Day Trip To Melaka


Today is Saturday and me & Alan had planned to go for a short visit to Melaka. We started our journey at 9.30am from Kuala Lumpur and reached Melaka at about 12 noon. Firstly after parking our car, we go to have our lunch first at Famosa Chicken Rice Ball. We ordered chicken as well chicken rice balls and vegetables. After our lunch, we went to The Ship in Melaka town where this place is a museum inside the ship. Just step inside the ship and you can actually see the history of the ships who travel and used to land in Melaka before. The admission fees is RM3.00 per person and there's a lot of things to see inside with lots of information about the history of Melaka. Besides, when entering inside the ship, you need to take off your shoes and no shoes are allowed inside the ship gallery.







After that we went to A Famosa to take photos. We also do climb up the stairs to yet another masterpiece of A Famosa up the small hill where here you can enjoy the beautiful sea view of Melaka as well as partially Melaka town. After that, just about 300 meter down hill is the Stadhuys Melaka. Here we also took some photos and of course, the attention should go to the famous red building in Melaka. There you will also get to see the beautiful paintings of Christ Church Melaka. After that, we go took our car and then we go and visit Bukit China. There, you can see actually find the Hang Li Poh well where there are tonnes of history lies behind this well.





At about 5.30pm, then we reach the Capitol Satay to enjoy the satay celup in town. It's a very famous satay celup in town and as I said earlier, this restaurant will be very packed after 5.00pm whereby it just started business. You will have to queue up about 30 minutes at least to get a place and the queue would be about 100m long. We left Melaka at about 7.15pm and reached Kuala Lumpur at about 9.45pm. It's a wonderful and tiring day for me and I hope we will visit Melaka again. Check out some partial photos here where I took from various places and for those of you who like to view my full photos, kindly visit my Facebook.
