Malacca : Malacca (or Melaka is it is now known) was once filled with the billowing sails of trading ships as Europeans, Indians and Chinese traded spices, silks, opium and tobacco along the east – west trade route. Malacca still retains the flavour of its historic past in the streets, buildings and ambiance of the town. Attractions include the Maritime Museum with a life-size replica of an old Portuguese galleon, St John’s Fort, Jonker Street – a haven for antique hunters and the Baba & Nonya centre – a blend of Malay and Chinese culture. Easily accessible from KL by train, Malacca is worth at least an overnight stay.

Jonkers St : Once prominent for its antique stores, Jonker Street has evolved over the years and now plays host to a series of good dining venues and cultural-style boutiques. Yet it’s the Friday and Saturday night Jonker Walk Night Market that has made the avenue famous; a lively bazaar of hawker food stalls and tourist-friendly trinket booths, this pasar malam (night market) is different from regular markets due to its relatively large-scale offerings as well as some of the tastiest fare in Malacca. Hotels in this area are mainly boutique affairs that are well worth the price you pay – the three-star Hotel Puri, a beautifully-restored Peranakan manor, deserves top billing but if you’re looking for something a little more modern, try the Jonker Boutique Hotel.
