Visit Historic Malacca Means Visit Malaysia www.worldheritage.com.my www.melaka.hotels.net.my

The city of Melaka is known for its connection with the history of the Malay Sultanate of Melaka which traced its origin back to some 600 years ago. During the 16th Century, Melaka became famous due to its strategic location as a major regional commercial port.

This has made Melaka a coveted possession among the western powers of that era and was subsequently seized by the Portugese, Dutch and English. Presently, the Melaka State Government has taken initiatives to preserve buildings and artifacts left by the colonisers and transform these as major historical sites that will attract both domestic and international tourists.
