Melaka<\/a> is rich in culture, thanks to the Eurasian and Peranakan communities in the quaint city. The Peranakans started forming a base in Melaka when many Chinese traders came and married local Malays or the Bataks. However, not all Peranakans have Chinese roots.<\/p>\n

European traders, especially the Dutch and Portuguese, also came to Malacca during the colonial\u00a0period. Some settled down with local women in Malacca, and the Eurasian (including Eurasian Peranakan) community was born.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The blend of Hokkien, Hakka, Cantonese, Malay, Javanese, Portuguese makes the Peranakan and Eurasian cultures extremely unique. You can find very few people speaking Kristang, the Eurasian’s dying creole language, in Malacca. Similarly, in Singapore, a few Eurasians have attempted to revive the dying language. You can also find Malacca’s Peranakan cuisine in Singapore’s food landscape, such as ayam buah keluak<\/em>\u00a0and Nyonya chendol<\/em>. If you happen to be in Tanjong Katong, Joo Chiat and Waterloo St-Queen St area, you will notice Peranakan and Eurasian influences on the facade of the residential shops, the food selections and some traditional kebaya shops \u2014\u00a0just like those in Malacca.<\/p>\n

The Majestic Malacca<\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The Majestic Malacca<\/a> is the fruit of the restoration of Straits Settlement mansion from the 1920s. The floral decorations, teakwood furniture and Victorian tiles will give you a glimpse of luxury and tradition in the past. It is also strategically located on the riverbank, giving you quick access to most of the popular tourist attractions.<\/p>\n

Hotel Puri Melaka<\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Hotel Puri Melaka<\/a> was previously the house of Tan Kim Seng, an influential philanthropist and rubber plantation owner in Malacca. The hotel is charming with its intricate Peranakan facade and interior design while providing modern facilities to the guests.<\/p>\n

Malaccan Cultural Treasures to<\/strong> Look Out For<\/strong><\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Don’t miss out on these trinkets, festivals and attractions when you are in Melaka.<\/p>\n

Nyonya Kebaya<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Originated from Indonesia, kebaya has evolved and adapted to different regions and cultures. What differentiates Nyonya kebaya from other kebaya is the translucent material used for the top. The sarongs and motifs are generally more colourful as well.<\/p>\n

Nyonya clogs\/sandals<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Also known as kasut manek<\/em> or Peranakan beaded slippers, the sandals were made of Peranakan cut beads. Each pair of sandals is carefully embroidered with intricate patterns. Simpler patterns and black, white, and blue are normally worn for sombre occasions.<\/p>\n

Portuguese Settlement: Portuguese Square and Festa San Pedro<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Previously called Saint John’s village, the Portuguese settlement is an enclave for Malaccan Portuguese or Malay Eurasians. Every June, the community celebrates Festa San Pedro – the boat festival paying homage to St. Peter, the patron saint of fishermen – and Festa Senjuang. During the festival, you will get a chance to listen to Malacca Portuguese folk songs and watch the folk dances. Although there is nothing much in other months, you can still visit the Portuguese Square for some Portuguese Malaysian seafood on the coast of Melaka Straits.<\/p>\n

Jonker Street Night Market<\/strong><\/h3>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Every Friday to Sunday after 6 pm, Jonker Walk turns into a bustling market with lots of food and souvenir options on each side of the street. However, the highlight is watching many locals singing and dancing on the street karaoke stage. It can’t get any more local than this!<\/p>\n

Interesting Places to Visit: Homely Kampung<\/strong><\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Malacca is bigger than what you think – besides Malacca City, there are more than 20 townships in Melaka. Though other cities do possess nostalgic vibes with the lines of old, worn-out shophouses, Malacca City is the heart of nostalgia in Malacca. Malacca City feels like a far-too-familiar city with Portuguese colonial buildings and Chinese temples concentrated there. To get you started with the balik kampung<\/em> journey, we have compiled a list of 10 nostalgic things to do in Melaka.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

1) A’Famosa Fort<\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Although only the small gatehouse – Porta de Santiago – remains from the A Famosa Portuguese, A’Famosa Fort still holds the key to the colonial past. The fort changed hands a few times \u2014 firstly the Portuguese, then the Dutch, and finally the British. Some structures are still being uncovered until today.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

2) St Paul Church<\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Initially named “Our Lady of The Hill\u201d, the church was turned into a burial ground for the Dutch noble dead, and thus, the name changed into \u201cSt. Paul\u2019s Church\u201d. It is the oldest church in Southeast Asia. You can see an open grave in the church where St. Francis Xavier was temporarily buried.<\/p>\n
