    Melaka

    August 20, 2023 in Malaysia ⋅ ☁️ 31 °C

    Before we finish our Malaysia trip, we make one more stop in historical Melaka. An important port town in the 16th - early 19th century and therefore subject to power struggles between the Portuguese, Dutch and British. The Dutch influence is still to be seen in Jonker street and the history museum housed in the former city hall - Stadthuys.

    Nowadays the beautiful city hall area is filled with bike taxi’s with innocent looking carts decorated with cute pluches, Hello Kitty, Doraemon, Pikachu, Baby Shark, Spiderman. But once they are on the move, they terrorise the streets with their loud music and devastating beats (tip: turn on the sound of the video), apparently it is part of the experience…..

    We head back to KL and actually our trip is ending here. BUT as our return 🥹 flight is from South Korea, we still have 4 days to go back where our adventure started, SOUL 😁😋!!!

    Bye bye Malaysia!
